 Guy,
 
 disklabel has seen some fixes in the 5.x era and has finally been
 replaced by bsdlabel (also back in the 5.x times IIRC). I'm pretty sure
 I haven't seen this misbehavior for a while now.
 
 Do you agree to close this PR?
 
 On a side note to the sample you've given: the label editor should be
 used on a slice or a disk but not on a label.
