Subject: md has hard coded maximum number of drives?

Ah, nevermind. I just discovered that mdadm defaults to the old 0.90 format
superblock. I suppose that's still a WTF but at least it makes sense.
Perhaps the error message should explain exactly *why* 28+ is invalid and
suggest using -e to work around the problem.
