That's only for the kernel autostart. mdadm actually gives a flying
food about these.
See "autostarting devices" in
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-mdadm/mdadm/trunk/debian/README.Debian?op=file&rev=0&sc=0
I have also heard that kernel autostart is to be deprecated.
But in any case, mdadm can autodetect RAID devices based on
superblock UUID (among others). Use that.

`- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
(on the statement print "42 monkeys"+"1 snake") btw,
both perl and python get this wrong.
perl gives 43 and python gives "42 monkeys1 snake",
when the answer is clearly "41 monkeys and 1 fat snake".
