I can confirm this on i386, and sparc also.
This is a semi-anoying hickup for those who wish to make tiny root-msf
images for a soekris boards, or nfs diskless, and/or mfs-root floppies,
etc.
I belive PHK is/was looking for the root cause of this, which was a thread
that had something to do with bsdlabel's, or not.
Anyways, here was that thread:

mdmfs: newfs exited with error code 36
This error seems to be generic, I see it on i386 too. I usually
mount /tmp with the following entry from fstab:
md /tmp mfs rw,-s250m 2 0
This gives the newfs error mentioned above. Doing the steps by hand
I get:
# mdconfig -a -t swap -s 256m
md4
# newfs /dev/md4
/dev/md4: 256.0MB (524288 sectors) block size 16384, fragment size 4096
