Guntsche Michael said yesterday on grub-devel now, that grub2 can only handle 
the default 0.90
superblock format but as you can see above you are using 1.0 even for /boot

man mdadm says:
The difference between 0.90 and 1.X is that 0.90 only supports 28 devices and 2 
TB.
The difference between 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2 is only the position where it's stored 
on the devices.

mdraids with default 0.90 format works fine with grub2 as long as you aren't 
installing grub in a chroot to it,
but have booted your system with it.

So please recreate your /boot md with default format 0.90 and make sure it's 
fully synced
i.e. /proc/mdstat shows [UU]
grub-probe has problems with missing devices or not fully synced raids.
