It appears that this bug breaks the entire Linux Software RAID system,
as none of the /dev/md* devices exist.

------

$ sudo ln -s /sbin/MAKEDEV /dev/MAKEDEV
$ sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install mdadm
<<< SNIP --- installer doesn't complain about /dev/MAKEDEV >>>

$ sudo mdadm --add /dev/md0 /dev/sda3
mdadm: error opening /dev/md0: No such file or directory
stef...@gondor:~$ ls -l /dev/md*
ls: cannot access /dev/md*: No such file or directory

------

Shouldn't the /dev/md* devices be created when the mdadm installer
invokes /dev/MAKEDEV?

Postinst script invokes nonexistent /dev/MAKEDEV (was /sbin/MAKEDEV intended?)
