I ran across this too as I just started using geli. I mount the partition with
the following script. I added fsck, inspired from the gbde section of the
handbook:
geli attach -k /root/ad5s4f.key /dev/ad5s4f
fsck -p -t ffs /dev/ad5s4f.eli
mount /dev/ad5s4f.eli /backup
Geli is awesome in my experience for slices and swap.
