I kept digging and apparently the SAS controller in this thing has the
lovely moniker of "fakeRAID". :) That cleared up some details in that
grub by default doesn't know how to handle a fakeRAID system that uses
anything other than RAID1 unless the dmraid module is loaded at boot.
I gave up and used soft RAID on the drives with three partitions on each
drive (md0, swap, md1). Boot is sitting on one array and root is on
another.
