OK, I don't mean to beat a dead horse but......
I am about to upgrade several old raid5 production systems to the new
raid using 0.90 tools. I see this warning

an a conflicting statement that says:

So.... is it safe to set the persistent-superblock to
1
or NOT when doing the mkraid --upgrade on raid5 and raid 1 devices???
I still don't have it straight and I don't really want to re-load
many giga-bytes from a slow dat tape.
