I tried -7 with my hpa patch applied, still fails to boot au naturale :). So it looks like not a dupe to me, or my HPA patch interferes with the fix.
I've modified dmraid-activate to allow debugging if invoked with DMRAID_DEBUG=1, using your debug code, patch for both attached. I'll attach log files in a second.
running
DMRAID_DEBUG=1 /sbin/dmraid-activate sda
works
Now, I'm not sure how udev will precisely invoke dmraid-activate, but if its using the former syntax, that would explain it. If its meant to use the latter syntax, I have to assume udev is failing to invoke dmraid-activate.
