Using upstream bzr code solves the problem indeed. I use 1.2 meta-data
on the raid, now grub-mkdevicemap works fine, so does grub-probe,
installation on both devices of the raid gives me no error and the
reboot was alright.
Hope this version will be pulled in Debian soon.

Thank you for your assistance.
