F16 occasionally breaks RAID1 (md) on boot

Hello users of Linux software RAID! I have two identical harddisks, and on a freshly installed Fedora 16 all my filesystems (/boot, /, /home, /usr/local, /opt, swap) are set up as software RAID1 (md). Occasionally (about every second boot), Fedora 16 silently removes one of the mirrors
