Yeah, I've found your reply few moments after I've hit 'send' button.  Now
I see what went wrong: I've tried kldload'ing it of course, but it told me

  $ kldload /boot/kernel/geom_part_vtoc8.ko
  kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/geom_part_vtoc8.ko: module already loaded
or in kernel

So I thought, hm, perhaps it's in GENERIC.  And of course I didn't look in
dmesg buffer:

  KLD geom_part_vtoc8.ko: depends on kernel - not available or version
mismatch

Being lazy to type `geom_part_vtoc8.ko' by hand, I've relied on shell tab
completion and totally forgot that I've booted `kernel.old', not `kernel'.

Sorry for the noise.
