Yes, that is the version of mdadm. I am running squeeze, which is a
2.6.32-5 version of the kernel, and it is an amd64 machine.

The only thing I see in the log is:

[307932.328420] mdadm: sending ioctl 1261 to a partition!
[307932.328425] mdadm: sending ioctl 1261 to a partition!

but this is just when the device is added, after that it appears that
logrotation failed and I have a zero byte kern.log, and firewall spew
has filled up my dmesg ring.

It did resync, and is still a spare.... Now that I've fixed the logs,
I'm going to try it again to see if there is any error that happens
after the sync finishes.
