Please try 2.5.5-1 from sid.

Anyway, the only thing I can imagine is that for some reason mdadm
wasn't sure that /dev/md0 was the right array to mount for /, so it
went back to assembling all arrays according to mdadm.conf.

If your arrays get misnamed by this method, I suggest you fix your
mdadm.conf and check the arrays superblocks for duplicate minor
numbers. See the FAQ and README.recipes for more information.

If the problem persists and you can reproduce it (edit
/etc/default/mdadm and set INITRDSTART to /dev/md0, then run
dpkg-reconfigure mdadm), please add a set -x near the top of
/var/lib/dpkg/info/mdadm.config and run dpkg-reconfigure one more
time and post all the output to this bug report.
