This is because GEOM_BSD -> GEOM_PART_BSD change. bsdlabel(8) needs
read-write access to the device. If it can't get that, it tries an
alternative GEOM based method only supported by GEOM_BSD. The error
message "Class not found" is printed because the "BSD" GEOM class
doesn't exist.

You might be able to do the changes with gpart(8).
