This behaviour isn't a function of 1.2 metadata. It is a function of /sys/module/md_mod/parameters/start_ro which is probably being setting by Debian early in boot because that can be a very sensible thing to do. I should probably get --create to over-ride it (I thought I had, but obviously not). If you write '0' to it, you'll find that the array starts normally. Alternately, just start using the array. As soon as you "mkfs", the array will start resyncing.
