Doh. This corresponds to errors omitted unintentionally in my previous mail.
This is right after "xbd2: attaching as da1":

da0 at sym0 bus 0 scbus2 target 0 lun 0
da0: <QEMU QEMU HARDDISK 0.10> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device
da0: 3.300MB/s transfers
da0: Command Queueing enabled
da0: 3812MB (7807527 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 485C)
can't re-use a leaf (led)!
g_dev_taste: make_dev_p() failed (gp->name=da0, error=17)
da1 at sym0 bus 0 scbus2 target 1 lun 0
da1: <QEMU QEMU HARDDISK 0.10> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device
da1: 3.300MB/s transfers
da1: Command Queueing enabled
da1: 114439MB (234372222 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 14588C)
can't re-use a leaf (led)!
g_dev_taste: make_dev_p() failed (gp->name=da1, error=17)

No ada devices detected though.
