Another idea:  Do you use a detached lock-location file  (-L option
to gbde init) ?

If not, is there any chance the first sector of the gbde partition
has been overwritten ?  Check your disklabels etc.  Also, if it starts
at the very beginning of the disk, check that nothing slammed a MBR
or similar down there.
