Based on the dmesg, you aren't using raid for your boot or root disks, so its not really an initramfs issue (or doesn't have to be).  It is almost certainly a missing initscript, or missing runlevel configuration for an initscript.  Unfortunately, I'm not terribly familiar with the ubuntu init system, so I can't point at anything specific to check.

By mentioning building from source, I assume you mean the mdadm package?  If so, you are probably missing the initscript and configuration files that ubuntu packages with mdadm to make their entire system "seamless".  Is there something you need from the latest and greatest mdadm?

Also, anyone else care to jump in?

Phil
