--- Comment #1 from Thomas Hurst <tom at hur.st> ---
Just encountered this myself - it's caused by the hardcoded device name being
truncated to 15 characters.  In my case, adding gpt/voi.ssd.swap0 silently
produced:

    hcprovider: gpt/voi.ssd.swa

Very stingy.  gmirror metadata looks to be pretty compact (135 bytes), so it
should be able to support a good deal more.  Either way, it shouldn't just
silently truncate.
