I have verified that the cpqarray module is present in 2.6.6-1.435.2.3 and 2.6.7-1.494.2.2 kernel rpms:

My guess from your description is that the initrd is missing this and supporting modules. Try booting your rescue kernel, checking whether there is an entry in /etc/modprobe.conf for it:
The module defs were there in modprobe.conf, so I reran mkinitrd after chroot'ing from a rescue boot.
Now a regular boot works! Woohoo!
So, would you consider this a problem with the initrd image shipping with Fedora kernels?
Maybe they did an --omit on scsi?
Thanks for the help.
