Its not assembling due to the "degraded" state.  This is on Centos 5.5 
using our kernel bits (never had a problem with this before).  We've 
gotten past that issue and are now onto the next one for them (many 
thanks to Neil for the solution)

The customer in question may have modified their configs, and we are 
trying to walk their changes back to the point where it stopped working.

Thanks

Joe
