yup
add something like
{
        struct stat statbuf;

        if(stat("/dev/md0",&statbuf)<0 && errno==ENOENT) {
                puts("/dev/md0 does not exist. run make install_dev from
                        the raidtools source directory\n");
        } else {
                puts("RAID was not compiled into the kernel\n");
        }
}

to the /dev/md0 checks
