Continued from Difference between faulty and non-fresh

I was reading some entries in the archive and run the following:

mdctl --assemble --force /dev/md3 /dev/hda2 /dev/hde1 /dev/hdg1

But now I get this when I run lsraid -R -a /dev/md3 -d /dev/hda2

raiddev /dev/md3
        raid-level              5
        nr-raid-disks           3
        nr-spare-disks          0
        persistent-superblock   1
        chunk-size              64

        device          /dev/hda2
        raid-disk               0
        device          /dev/hde1
        spare-disk              0
        device          /dev/null
        failed-disk             1
        device          /dev/null
        failed-disk             2

From where comes the spare-disk and why are there suddenly 4 devices listed?
My /etc/raidtab list the following:

raiddev             /dev/md3
raid-level                  5
nr-raid-disks               3
chunk-size                  64k
persistent-superblock       1
nr-spare-disks              0
device      /dev/hda2
raid-disk     0
device      /dev/hde1
raid-disk     1
device      /dev/hdg1
raid-disk     2

What now? When running raidstart I get:
