So maybe this is a file system problem rather than an mdadm problem?
mkfs.ext3 says:

      -m reserved-blocks-percentage
             Specify the percentage of the filesystem blocks reserved for the
             super-user.   This  avoids  fragmentation, and allows root-owned
             daemons, such as syslogd(8), to continue to  function  correctly
             after non-privileged processes are prevented from writing to the
             filesystem.  The default percentage is 5%.

this can be changed on an existing FS using tune2fs.

Also, this is not related to mdadm at all.
