I have redone this setup with FreeBSD 8.0 STABLE but I get the same results.
My da0s1f.journal and da0s1g.journal disappear and I get this:

mount: /dev/da0s1g.journal : No such file or directory
mount: /dev/da0s1f.journal : No such file or directory
mount: /dev/da0s1g.journal : No such file or directory

While in single usermode, an ls /dev still shows that da0s2* are not
present.

Is there a particular reason I'd have the journal devices vanish? Is there a
solution for this?

Of course, you might discount this possibility, but remember that one in
a million chances happen 99% of the time.
