there is now a much more complete patch by vladimir serbinenko
for upstream available. beside some minor cleanup (change 'index' from 
signed to unsigned) and refactoring (folding some fields to the 
structure 'grub_raid_member') it respects the differences between dmraid 
format 0.9 and 1.x (the later becomes the default in debian squeeze) and 
all the related memory management. (see: 
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2010-10/msg00044.html )

please include this changes in the debian packages. otherwise it will be 
nearly impossible to update or finish an installation using spare disks.
