Log message:
Don't spoof a Free/NetBSD MBR partition as the 'a' partition in a
disklabel. Fixes 'double spoofing' of these partitions as both 'a' and
something in the 'i' to 'p' range.

OpenBSD changed its MBR partition type to 'A6' eight years ago.  As a
backward compatibility measure NetBSD and FreeBSD MBR partitions were
still spoofed as 'a' partitions when no OpenBSD partition could be
found. This bit of backward compatibility is no longer required.
