Note: the corruption Jim found and which I have confirmed are only

If you see something different, please let me know. It would
definitely help tracking this down.
ah! that explains it then. I was indeed copying over data in
degraded mode.
The bug is elusive enough that it's difficult :-/
ouch. and RAID that can't be written to in degraded mode is
somewhat impractical for production use. ;-)
is there anything I can do to help? otherwise, I'll fall back to
RAID5 and prepare the box for production.
Unless you want to try to help hunt down the bug, not much.
