Thanks for the extra details.
I still cannot manage to reproduce it which is frustrating, but I
think I can fix your array for you.
Get the source for mdadm 2.6.3, apply the following patch, then use
mdadm -A /dev/md0 --update=this /dev/sd[abcde]
that should re-write the part of the superblocks that is wrong, then
assemble the array.
Please let me know how it goes.
Also, if you could show me "mdadm.conf" and "mdrun.conf" from the
initrd, that might help.
Thanks,
NeilBrown
