I have seen that page, & its sibling showing how to setup a RAID1 on 2 
disks, *very* helpful, & I think updated recently, they used to have the 
MBR stuff at the top of the page & GPT farther down. I am following 
http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/gmirror.html pretty closely in 
my setup, with a bit of 
http://www.ateamsystems.com/tech-blog/installing-freebsd-9-gmirror-gpt-partitions-raid-1/ 
mixed in (-a 1m, mostly). I am still having issues (I am using both 
gmirrors & gstripes, might be an issue), but am plugging away on it, may 
have a few more questions in a bit :-/ ....
