The error messages here really worry me:

DEBUG: MakeDev: Unknown major/minor for devtype 0s1b

Something has corrrupted (or never set) the device prefix in the path 
entries in the disk chunk that's being fed to MakeDevDisk() here.  
I'm at a bit of a loss as to how this can happen though; it's meant to 
be maintained by libdisk...

Brian, can you offer any more details on your install?  Disk type?  
Prior disk layout, etc?  I'd like to try to reproduce it if I can...
