GEOM/bsdlabel regression in 8.x?

I was helping a friend as he wanted to add a partition to a new install, ie he did (effectively) this..
truncate -s 10m /tmp/test
mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /tmp/test
fdisk -BI /dev/md0
bsdlabel -w /dev/md0s1
bsdlabel -e /dev/md0s1
<change a: to>
a: 2048 16 4.2BSD 0 0 0
newfs /dev/md0s1a
mkdir /mnt/test
mount /dev/md0s1a /mnt/test
bsdlabel -e /dev/md0s1
Then you get..
"bsdlabel: Class not found"
Note that just touching the file bsdlabel is using is enough to cause it to generate that error.
I tried the same steps on a 7.x system and it worked fine.
ktrace shows

Note that my friend tried it on real hardware and said that after he rebooted it appeared(!)
