CGSIZE inaccuracy?

I'm running 4.9-RELEASE, and writing some tools to navigate around my
UFS filesystems to figure out what I have lost when I get bad blocks.
There's not much detailed online documentation of UFS beyond fs(5) and
fs.h, so I'm feeling my way through the sources.
Looking at fs.h, I see this:
/*
* The size of a cylinder group is calculated by CGSIZE. The maximum size
* is limited by the fact that cylinder groups are at most one block.
* Its size is derived from the size of the maps maintained in the
* cylinder group and the (struct cg) size.
*/
#define CGSIZE(fs) \
/* base cg */ (sizeof(struct cg) + sizeof(int32_t) + \
/* blktot size */ (fs)->fs_cpg * sizeof(int32_t) + \
/* blks size */ (fs)->fs_cpg * (fs)->fs_nrpos * sizeof(int16_t) + \
/* inode map */ howmany((fs)->fs_ipg, NBBY) + \
/* block map */ howmany((fs)->fs_cpg * (fs)->fs_spc / NSPF(fs), NBBY) +\
/* if present */ ((fs)->fs_contigsumsize <= 0 ? 0 : \
/* cluster sum */ (fs)->fs_contigsumsize * sizeof(int32_t) + \
/* cluster map */ howmany((fs)->fs_cpg * (fs)->fs_spc / NSPB(fs), NBBY)))
In a typical filesystem (fs_fsize = 2048, fs_bsize = 16384, fs_ipg =
22528, fs_cpg = 89, fs_spc = 4096, fs_nrpos = 1, fs_contigsumsize =
7), the parts of this sum add up like this:
172 struct cg;
4 int32_t
356 blktot: free blocks per cylinder;
178 blks: free blocks per rpos per cylinder;
2816 inode map, one bit per inode;
11392 block map, one bit per fragment;
28 cluster summary, one int32_t per contigsumsize+1;
1424 cluster map, one bit per block;
------
16370 CGSIZE
However, using the cg_* macros from fs.h (e.g. cg_clustersum), I get
offsets like this:
base limit size
0- 168 168 struct cg less cg_space
168- 524 356 cg_blktot (free blocks per cylinder)
524- 702 178 cg_blks (free blocks per rpos per cylinder)
702- 3518 2816 cg_inosused (inode bitmap)
3518-14910 11392 cg_blksfree (fragment bitmap)
14911-14912 2 padding
14912-14940 28 cg_clustersum (block cluster summaries)
14940-16364 1424 cg_clusteroff (block bitmap)
16364 nextfreeoff
There are three discrepancies here:
+4: sizeof(struct cg) is used instead of offsetof(cg_space);
+4: sizeof(int32_t) is added, mysteriously;
-2: the padding for cg_clustersum is disregarded.
I don't *think* that this matters, because CGSIZE is only apparently
used (by newfs and fsck) as a conservative approximation of the size
of the cylinder group header. But it seems odd, given that a correct
calculation is fairly easy.
