The root cause was found, fixed, testd, and committed to HEAD recently.
I expect it to be committed to RELENG_5_2 tomorrow.  Until then, you can
either try a 5.2-CURRENT snapshot, or gamble with 5.2-RC1 by turning off
softupdates on the destination partitions.  Once installed, you can
turn SU back on.
