It probably doesn't understand that sd0 and ccd0 may be (partly for ccd) on the same drive. It certainly doesn't understand that different slices on the same drive are on the same drive. The latter is usually not a problem because multiple real FreeBSD slices are not normally used (don't use both the compatibility slice and the corresponding real slice except possibly for using the former for the root file system and the latter for everything else).
