A5 Partion type confusion while dual booting DragonFlyBSD with FreeBSD

Do you mean it was a bad idea when using MBR partitioning scheme?

I have a multibooting macbookpro on a GPT disk with DragonFly, OSX and
linux, and all boot fine via EFI (with the refind boot manager).
Although I'm using DragonFly for work GPT makes it easy to keep the
other OSs for testing purposes.
