Now that I'm less mobile, I've been able to take a close look at the
code.  It looks fairly good and will make diskprep's life easier in
many ways.  The new ioctl isn't strictly necessary, but does make life
easier for disklabel to figure things out.  I was able to divine this
information from fdisk's output...

I also see why I thought Matt's code added an mbr on top of that,
which was a pilot error on my part.
