Subject:   offset 16 at bsdlabel step of gmirror config

I've found Ralf's tutorial on configuring gmirror and have read through 
the threads on this list. But I'm still unsure of the bsdlabel step 
when configuring gmirror.

I know partition a is supposed to be offset 16 instead of 0. When I change 
it, I get this message:

partitions a and b overlap!

If I bump up b's offset by 16, that message goes away, but I still have 
this one:

bsdlabel: partition c doesn't cover the whole unit!

I get the same message if I bump up all the offsets (except c) by 16.

Should I:

1. just bump a's offset up by 16 and ignore error messages?
2. bump a and b's offsets up by 16 and assume error message on c is due to
    sysinstall bug and can be ignored?
3. bump up all the offsets by 16 (except for c which shouldn't be touched)
    and ignore error message about c
