sure :). I installed the new driver as described in the README and
disabled the old one. The boot went through perfect (no error messages
concerning the enclosure any more).
Then I removed one drive and the spare was rebuilt. Later I re-inserted
the first drive and removed the spare. The rebuild also went through.
I got many messages during the rebuilt, sorry for not being able to
reproduce them exactly but they did not appear in syslog. There were
several concerning IO-Problems and things like that, I could no longer 
access the machine.
there seems to be big trouble when accessing the array after the
rebuild.
Finally I rebooted the machine and the syncing before the halt failed. 
While rebooting the mylex-bios did not report any problems, the two 
system drives and the spare disk were all online. Freebsd made an fsck (yes, 
I booted a different kernel) but did not report problems.
It might be possible that the error-messages were the result from the
driver trying to write to syslog - I have no Idea why else all the
messages that appered on the screen were not in syslog.
