>Description:
	Having a line with just a size and offset but no fstype causes
	"disklabel -e <device>" to dump core.  In my case, the offending
	line was:

		  e: 17948448 72121392

>How-To-Repeat:
	Use "disklabel -e <device>", delete everything after the partition
	offset for a partition, exit editor.

>Fix:
	None given.  This is a reminder unless someone beats me to it.
