kern/120231: [geom] GEOM_CONCAT error adding second drive

I'm having the same problem, but I'm wondering about an alternative
workaround. Is it possible to remove all partitions, only leaving
``c'', so that geom will only attempt to add the whole disk and not
any other partition as well?

For example, I have:

atlas% sudo bsdlabel /dev/stripe/gs9
# /dev/stripe/gs9:
8 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
  a: 2500527423       16    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28552
  c: 2500527439        0    unused        0     0         # "raw"
part, don't edit

Can I remove the ``a'' partition, only leaving ``c'', so that geom
only tries to add /dev/stripe/gs9 to /dev/concat/gc9, and not
/dev/stripe/gs9a as well?

GEOM_CONCAT: Device gc9 created (id=3563333761).
GEOM_CONCAT: Disk stripe/gs9 attached to gc9.
GEOM_CONCAT: Device gc9 activated.
GEOM_LABEL: Label for provider stripe/gs9 is ufsid/4aece8d6fd9650d6.
GEOM_LABEL: Label for provider stripe/gs9a is ufsid/4aeceb954b2a81d6.
GEOM_CONCAT: Cannot add disk ufsid/4aece8d6fd9650d6 to gc9 (error=17).

I appreciate any responses. Thank you!
