struct disklabel {
        ...
        uint16_t d_npartitions; /* number of partitions in following */
        ...
        struct partition {
        } d_partitions[MAXPARTITIONS];
};

It simply prints whatever is in the disklabel and it does not print
partitions with size == 0. You can simply edit the d_npartitions value
and in interactive mode the value is extended when you define new
partitions beyond the current setting.
