Thanks for the report. This is indeed a problem, but I think the bug
is in splashy, which references $RUNLEVEL even though it has not
been defined. Due to my use of set -u, this causes the mdadm script
to bail out, as it sources the splashy file.

I am thus reassigning this bug to splashy and hope that Otavio will
fix it. Otavio: if you're unwilling or unable to apply my patch,
please reassign back so that I can upload a new mdadm which hacks
around the problem.

The fix is simply to replace

  if [ -z "$RUNLEVEL" ]; then

with

  if [ -z "${RUNLEVEL:-}" ]; then

Thanks,
