Please add the attached udev rules file to mdadm-ebuild. It uses the new
--export option so will only work with versions starting ~2.6.2. 
suse calls the file 64-md-raid.rules (and so it is called in udev tarball).

It will generate these symlinks in /dev:

/dev/disk/by-id/md-name-NAME
/dev/disk/by-id/md-uuid-UUID
(if NAME/UUID of raid device are set)

and:
/dev/disk/by-uuid/UUID
/dev/disk/by-label/LABEL
(if filesystem on raid device has UUID/LABEL set).

+1

udev-tarball contains this file, but I think merging it into mdadm sources
could be good.

going into mdadm-2.6.3-r2.
