I am unsure whether this is a regression in debconf or not. I cannot
reproduce the problem here at all.

Does it persist if you install dash and allow it to provide the
/bin/sh symlink?

Could you please run the following commands and provide the output?

  dpkg -l bash debconf

And then I need some debug output, so please run as root:

  dpkg --unpack /var/cache/apt/archives/mdadm_2.6.9-1_*.deb
  sed -i -e '/confmodule/iset -vx' /var/lib/dpkg/info/mdadm.postinst
  dpkg --configure mdadm
