I am getting an error when attaching some disks from Mac OSX.  This is
an enclose of 5 SATA disks used with OSX ZFS.

Sep 19 02:56:28 GOHORNS kernel: g_dev_taste: make_dev_p() failed
(gp->name=gpt/oformat%<FF>^P<B9>,, error=17)

When I look in /dev the device entries are there.  Under FreeBSD it's
using the siis driver for these disks.

Each disk is GPT partitioned by OSX rather than whole disks ZFS.  It
looks like this in OSX    :
