When I run grub-mkconfig (it's grub2, -multislot), it generates
root=/dev/md127p2. md arrays get assembled at boot so their numbers
aren't fixed.

So far I've been manually editing the generated config. But I don't want
a non-booting server some time in future because of this bug. My rootfs
has a label with gentoo and root=LABEL=gentoo works perfectly.

Never mind, http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GRUB2 solved it for me.
