I be stumped:  

newsfeed-inn# uname -a

Diskcontroller is a 3ware 7800, with 4 maxtor 20GB IDE's on it, which have all been scanned 1x
with the maxblast software for a quick verification.

It gets weirder:

(A little surprised that newfs will newfs a non 4.2BSD/UFS labeled volume, but oh well).

So I can newfs it, but I can't vinum it.

I've tried zeroing out the label, and using sysinstall to put on the disklabel's,
and using just disklabel -w -r auto.  Can't get it to work.

Note that if I uncomment d1-d4, they all fail in the same way.
