JD,
Until recently, as in 2005 or 2008 code, (I don't remember which) pulling two hots and a neutral to a sub panel, bonding the subpanel and installing a grounding electrode was an accepted and code compliant installation as long as the sub panel was in a separate building from the main panel. It has just been in the last few years that code updates have required a separate grounding conductor be pulled and terminated to the main panel. I am not exactly sure why this change was made, but I am sure the code making panel had a reason behind it. I too have several outbuildings fed just like yours on overhead feeds. As I convert to underground feeds, I am adding the grounding conductor to make things compliant with current code.
