Strange, I thought I tried that before writing. One of the first things 
that I would have tried.

Anyhow: now, it has the required effect.

An additional mystery. Before replacement of the internal hard disk, I 
had swap at:

/dev/ada0p3.eli

With that disk now external, in the dock on USB, metadata can not be 
read (geli attach fails). I'm happy for this to remain mysterious; 
assume that non-encrypted data somehow crept in, use sswap(1) to 
securely delete whatever might be there.
