>Description:
	When using GPT inside slices it's not possible to alter the GPT
        without terminating work and shutdown to single user mode.
	If I followed the discussion about GEOM write protection correctly
        there is a new g_ctl function to use for such tasks.
	Marcel already started to implement g_ctl into GEOM_GPT, this is 
	a reminder for him.
>How-To-Repeat:
	See short thread here:
