Automatic unit start broken?

It seems that FreeBSD doesn't start disks anymore.
Disks which delayed start won't get probed by GEOM when they are not
ready when GEOM tries - at least one can delay booting in this case.
Disks which don't startup unless told never get working - I currently
start them manually in rc-scripts and tell GEOM to reprobe, but this
is not always an option, e.g. in case of / drive.
All in all this is very annoying since I have not much options about
changing the disk spin-up policy.
