I can't reproduce this fdisk/disklabel on netbsd-9 nor -current.
fdisk on vnd0 gives me the same partition table as on the file.
FreeBSD fails to boot with the same error message.
The size of the disk is indeed 790528 in the xenstore (and the dom0's
kernel message) but I don't know where this comes from.
xbdback uses getdiskinfo() to get the device's size.
In vnd, the size comes from a VOP_GETATTR() on the file, so it looks
like VOP_GETATTR() returns the wrong size.
The file is definitively 791121 sectors long:
#dd if=FreeBSD-12.2-RELEASE-amd64-mini-memstick.img.orig
of=FreeBSD-12.2-RELEASE-amd64-mini-memstick.img
