After
#kldunload msdos

All works properly:
#mount_msdos /dev/ad0s4 /mnt
#
:-)

However, it loads the module 'msdos.ko' afresh. Then if I dismount this
disk, I should unload 'msdos.ko' again before I can mount anything else.
However, if at least one 'dos'disk is being mounted, the second and others
mounts without any problems.

Thank you very much.
