Minor bug in mdadm.
The device is clearly faulty:

    Number   Major   Minor   RaidDevice State
       0       8       65        0      faulty spare rebuilding   /dev/sde1

so mdadm should never suggest that it is also spare and rebuilding. 
I'll fix that.

What is a little odd is that 'RaidDevice' is still '0'.  Normally when a
device fails the RaidDevice gets set to '-1'.
This doesn't happen immediately though - md waits until all pending requests
have completed and then disassociated with the device and sets raid_disk to
-1.
So you seem to have caught it before the device was fully quiesced .... or
some bug has slipped in and devices that get errors don't fully quiesce any
more....
