Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately it didn't work (that's what I had
tried).
However, I think I found a workaround: after combining wd0a and wd1a as
mirrors with the first command, I created a disklabel for sd0, with a sd0a
of type "raid"

Then: bioctl -c C -r 8192 -l /dev/sd0a softraid0

Which gave me sd1... which I then disklabel'd, etc... and finally mounted
sd1a.

So I _think_ it is being encrypted and mirrored. But I need to do more tests
to confirm.

Thanks for the help - I hope my findings can help someone else hitting the
same issue.
Frankly I don't know why your suggestion didn't work. It seems to me it
should.

Cheers,
