I only have a couple more ideas:

- Try John Maier's suggestion about setting the NetBSD partition active.

- My NetBSD and MS-DOS partitions are contiguous in the partition table
  (MS-DOS is zero, NetBSD is one).  Try moving the NetBSD partition to
  partition number one.

- Do a "ktrace" on disklabel -B to see what it's doing, and start figuring
  out why it's doing that.  I just did that now - it seeks to the start of
  my NetBSD partition, and writes the bootblocks like you'd expect.
