I thought this was ment to be the default from back in the 6.x days but
it didnt seem to work, so I added the gptid device from /etc/fstab

/etc/defaults/rc.conf has dumpdev="NO", which affects two things: both
/etc/rc.d/dumpon (this script is a little tricky, you really have to
read it slowly/pay close attention to what's going on), and
/etc/rc.d/savecore.

Hmm, someone might want to correct the docs then:-
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html

"AUTO is the default as of FreeBSD 6.0"
