I haven't read the whole thread, but this sounds like the bug fixed by:

commit f81a2b56c4b437f66aaf5582a9c6b7f5ab2103c4
Author: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
Date:   Tue Oct 22 09:55:04 2013 +1100

    Assembe: fix bug in force_array - it wasn't forcing properly.


try getting mdadm from git and building that
  git clone git://neil.brown.name/mdadm
  cd mdadm
  make
