ah, udev, what a great pile of shit it is.
you could use the --auto= option of mdadm to have it create the device
for you, the only issue with that is that mdadm will use the first free
minor numbr it finds instead of using the minor implied by the device
name. (i was planning on changing that behaviour sooner or later).
