The virtual disklabel(8) only captures recognized partitions from the GPT or MBR partition table. It doesn't inspect the filesystems.
I've never used exFAT, so I don't know what MBR/GPT partition types it may use. If it uses x'07', the the kernel can't distinguish it from NTFS when it maps a virtual disklabel.

Well, our admins frown on using a single thread for multiple purposes, as it makes it hard to find the right thread when searching. But I'm glad you got the problem resolved!
