GEOM_PART spews warnings like this (IIRC the same ones) for partitions
created by FreeBSD when FreeBSD actually knew the correct (fictitious
BIOS) geometry. Killing GEOM_PART stopped them. Note that GEOM_PART is
inflicted by conf/DEFAULTS, at least for i386.
# Kill bad default options.
nooptions GEOM_PART_BSD
nooptions GEOM_PART_EBR
nooptions GEOM_PART_EBR_COMPAT
nooptions GEOM_PART_MBR
# Add non-default options.
options GEOM_BSD
options GEOM_MBR
GEOM_PART also gave weirdness for FreeBSD partitions, with multiple device
entries for some partitions and other aliasing bugs.
