Looking around on the Web, what I just tried was to stop the RAID, then do an --assemble --scan, and *that* found everything, put the raid together, and appears to be rebuilding using the new drive.
*phew*
I do find it interesting that scan works, but explicitly assembling apparently remembers the drive that died, and wouldn't even look at it.
The rebuild said 6000+ min, then seemed to stop. I see errors on one drive, but can't seem to do anything. It had /dev/md0 up, but insisted there were two spares. I tried to get them added, and now it won't start up /dev/md0.
