MD barriers for RAID-0 were added in 2.6.33, but very recent kernels
have much improved barriers again.

Kernel developers usually want reports about the newest versions,
ideally with enough information to debug the problem
(that is backtraces etc.) 

When you have a hang but the console is still active you can also just 
dump the threads with sysrq-t 

Often when things hang it's the underlying IO subsystem (driver, IO device).
