That's a wedge construct. Currently the kernel will create wedges only
from GPT labels. You need a kernel built with the DKWEDGE_METHOD_BSDLABEL
option to get such names for disklabel partitions.
There is some compatibility code so that default labels (with empty
packname or a packname of 'fictitious') generate wedges named like
a partition, e.g. wd0a, wd0b, etc. The libutil code also falls back
to accept something like NAME=wd0a, NAME=wd0b, ... The fstab then
works with and without DKWEDGE_METHOD_BSDLABEL for easier updates.
But since the name includes the device name it doesn't help in this
case.
