Though we are deleting this...

Fine with me, but it can happen after the removal rather than as a dependency of the removal, IMO.

Maybe? I'm just focused on removing vinum support and fdisk is still in the tree currently.

Indeed; as of rGb8c19fd719945 the man page states This command is obsolete. Users are advised to use gpart(8) instead. and as of 86e66321bb18 fdisk prints a deprecation notice when run.

I still think it's reasonable for these sort of changes to go in after the actual removal.
