Not in the Handbook.  To make gmirror work with GPT, create GPT 
partitions and mirror those.  I wrote an article on that using multiple 
partitions: http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/gmirror.html

However, it's since been pointed out that rebuilding the mirror could 
suffer from head contention.  Using a single GPT partition over the 
whole drive should not have that problem, but I haven't tested either 
way.
