where does your s4 partition start?
XFS puts it's superblock starting at block 0
but freebsd does not like that. (something about
protected blocks?)

I've been using partion d that starts a few blocks in.

# disklabel -r /dev/da1s1
# /dev/da1s1:
8 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
 c: 17848152        0    unused        0     0         # "raw" part, 
don't edit
 d: 17848142       10    4.2BSD        0     0     0

Try that and see if it work.

Otherwise there is something else amuck.
