Which binary kit do you use?

If it is 'snapshot/19991007', disklabel in this snapshot is broken.
Your problem seems to be the same to that with broken disklabel command.

To verify your /sbin/disklabel is up-to-date, check output of

     ident /sbin/disklabel | grep disklabel

If your output is

     $NetBSD: disklabel.c,v 1.74 1999/07/21 17:56:34 kleink Exp $
     $NetBSD: disklabel.c,v 1.25 1999/09/20 04:38:58 lukem Exp $

then, your disklabel command is broken.
