I've just run into this problem as well; Interestingly, I find that while
2.2.7 works, 2.2.7-ac3 doesn't - same problem.
Trying to look a bit further I can see that reconstruction does start,
processes about 20000 blocks and then gets stuck in the write part of
md_do_sync (somewhere in the loop over the buffers making up the current
chunk, round line 3470++ in md.c)
