Yah. HAMMER is not designed for partitions which overlap the boot
blocks, which is how normal 32 bit disklabels work (when ad0s1a
starts at sector 0 instead of sector 16).
64 bit disklabels are different. The partitions are out-of-band.
I really think the best way to deal with it is to have a separate
/boot partition which has the loader, kernel, and modules and anything
else the loader needs.
The bigger issue is making the boot code directly support 64 bit
disklabels or GPT.
