It seems to be not possible to create geli over glabel:

$ glabel status
       Name  Status  Components
   ufs/root     N/A  ada0s1a
label/spool     N/A  ada0s1d
 label/swap     N/A  ada0s1b

$ sudo geli init -s 4096 -K private.key /dev/label/spool
Enter new passphrase:
Reenter new passphrase: 

Metadata backup can be found in /var/backups/label_spool.eli and
can be restored with the following command:

	# geli restore /var/backups/label_spool.eli /dev/label/spool

$ geli status
$

Is this a bug?
