That is embarrassing... I thought I had the realmode boot block but I was wrong. I had a screwed-up bsdlabel from sysinstall at some point. When I did 'bsdlabel -B', it failed to install the boot block at all but I ignored the error message, I guess. :-( The bright side of this embarrassment is now I have warning-free bsdlabels on all partitions. ;-) Sorry for the noise.
