But yes, it doesn't hurt to add it to a wiki page somewhere.
I added this text to the wiki:
"There are bugs in older versions of mdadm, and a lot of "stable"
operating system releases ship with really old mdadm versions. Recent
versions are 3.2.x and 3.3.x. It's advisable if you run into problems
assembling your raid to upgrade to the latest git version of mdadm. If you
can get the raid to successfully assemble and recover with the git
version, then it's fine to use your old mdadm version again for normal
system operation. Newer mdadm doesn't make any changes to the array that
isn't backwards compatible."
