Is dmraid -s saying the stripe factor is 64k, or 64 sectors? I thought
it showed it in sectors, which would indeed be correct for 32k. If it
is actually wrong, then try dumping the metadata and posting it to the
dmraid mailing list ( <email address hidden> ) and the developers might
be able to fix it. I had a similar problem initially that was fixed in
this way.
