My apologies for replying to my first e-mail.
I'm not sure why this didn't occur to me the first time this happened,
but I completely powered off my machine, and then powered it back on.
It could see the partition table and disklabel on ad15 again. I
attempted an fsck, and I received the same errors as before, but this
time I hit a kernel panic, too:
GEOM_LABEL: Label ufsid/4a296b573007b5f2 removed.

Unfortunately, nothing showed up in /var/crash, which I think is odd.
I'll update my -STABLE, rebuild my kernel with debugging, and hope to
catch something next time.
In the mean time, I'd appreciate any help I could get on resolving this
problem.
