You need to use gvinum on 5-STABLE and -CURRENT.

As far as I can tell, it would be wise to update to 5-STABLE or wait
for 5.4 in order to use gvinum with RAID-5 configurations.

There have been some important fixes to gvinum wrt RAID-5 on the -STABLE
branch.

Do _not_ use regular vinum on 5-STABLE, it will not work.
