I am also seeing this problem. Just wanted to keep the thread going so it
might catch the eye of someone who knows how to fix it or what the problem
is. It always increases mdX by 1 every time I try and do 

chroot /home2/build/work/5-current-chrootdir /mk release.9

I did find a crappy way around that though by running that command
simultaniously in 2 shells, which makes it unable to unmount /dev/mdX
because it's busy with another operation. It still doesnt fix the problem
though becuase it doesnt install the mfsroot.
