Any GEOM scheme has reserved space at the beginning. And this space must be preserved by gpart 'add' command.
>How-To-Repeat:
Short example with BSD scheme (same with MBR, GPT and others):
#gpart create -s MBR ada0
#gpart add -t freebsd -s 999 ada0
#gpart create -s BSD ada0
#gpart show ada0s1
=> 0 999 ada0s1 BSD
   0 999 - free -
#gpart add -t freebsd-ufs ada0s1
#gpart show ada0s1
=> 0 999 ada0s1 BSD
   0 999 freebsd-ufs

/// This partition scheme is currently invalid. ///
#gpart delete -i 1 ada0s1
#gpart destroy ada0s1
#bsdlabel -w ada0s1
#gpart show ada0s1
=> 0 999 ada0s1 BSD
   0 16  -free-
   16 983 !0
/// This partition scheme is currently valid ///
