They are GPT partitions, not Solaris slices within a legacy MBR fdisk
partition.
There may be nomenclature byg here:
# zpool create -f -B -d weetest c4t0d0
# fdisk /dev/rdsk/c4t0d0
If you run fdisk /dev/rdsk/c4t0d0, you will see a single EFI partition,
but fdisk is just reporting that its a GPT labeled disk.
format -e /dev/rdsk/c4t0d0 -> partition will allow to create GPT
partitions, including the EFI GPT partition type only required if
booting UEFI, though I find FreeBSD's gpart(8) easier for the OP's use
case of multiple pools and filesystems on a single disk.
