I assume you are booting this is qmeu/nvmm/xen. Which? My impression is that this was implemented for RPI type systems where people would dd a fs image onto an SD or uSD card and then boot. It would not surprise me if it only works on mbr with a certain layout. I would suggest reading /etc/rc.d/resize_root and all the comments in its commit history. It basically looks like it runs resize_ffs. I would try to boot single user and then run the resize manually and see what happens.
