 I found that /usr/mdec/boot built without GPT support boots fine.
 
 After enabling CPPFLAGS+= -DNO_GPT in sys/arch/i386/stand/lib/Makefile
 re-compiled /usr/mdec/boot works - compiled again, but with above 
 definition commented out - fails exactly as in my first mail. 
 
 Maybe something left on disk? I had FreeBSD 9.x previously installed 
 on this host.
