--- Comment #5 from Graham Perrin <grahamperrin@gmail.com> ---
I encountered this bug today following installation of FreeBSD 12.1 from a
~2017 DVD to an old Fujitsu Siemens AMILO Li3710. 

Updated to 12.1-RELEASE-p13, upgraded to 12.2-RELEASE-p15, upgraded to
12.3-RELEASE-p5, upgraded to 13.1-RELEASE. 

Resolved with gpart(8):
