So the array is in the middle of a "reshape".

It should automatically complete...  Presumably it isn't doing that?

What does
   cat /proc/mdstat
say?

Where kernel log messages do you get when you assemble the array?


The spare device will not be added to the array until the reshape has
finished.

Hopefully you aren't using a 2.6.23 kernel?
That kernel had a bug which corrupted data when reshaping a degraded
raid5 array.
