 It seems that if you "insert" a sched geom and do "geli detach" on it,
 the geli geom can't be destroyed.
 
 After your commands "md0.eli" still exists:
 
 # geli list
 Geom name: md0.eli
 Providers:
 1. Name: md0.eli
    Mediasize: 10485760 (10M)
    Sectorsize: 512
    Mode: r0w0e0
 # geli detach md0.eli
 geli: No such device: md0.eli.
 
 I didn't find a way to destroy it. I suspect a geom_sched bug. luigi@
 cc'd.
