Description of problem:
It might be nice to upgrade mdadm to 1.4.0 (currently 1.3.0)

Changelog below for your convenience.

Changes Prior to 1.4.0 release
    -   Document fact that creating a raid5 array really creates a
degraded array with a spare.	
    -   Add "spares=" tag to config file and generate it with --detail
and --examine
    -   Add "SparesMissing" event when --monitor first sees an array
and it doesn't have the enough spare devices.
    -   Add --update=summaries for --assemble to update summary
information in superblock, and correct other inconsistancies in the
superblock.
    -   Add --test option to --detail to set a meaningful exit status.


Thanks :)

This has already been done.  It will be in our next round of errata
updates.
