I tried a full install again, and it seems that 94 blocks was too small
for freebsd-boot. I just tried again, and things seem to work now.

I am curious if this indeed was the cause.
Is there a way to determine the required size of a bootloader?

If this was indeed the cause (I need some sleep, so am not ruling
anything out :) ), I guess it is useful to add a warning message to gpart.
