I'll look at those when I have time.  In this specific case, I do not care
if the data is destroyed.  Just wanted to know if the disks would still be
in sync.

For the sync part, I don't believe it would really matter which metadata
version I used, the disks would be in sync except for areas where the old
metadata was stored.  Am I right on this?  That is assuming RAID1.
