Dave,
      They both give the same output exactly.

sizeof: 512
offsetof: info 0
offsetof: spare0 128
offsetof: infos 142
offsetof: spare 174
offsetof: rspeed 420
offsetof: pcylcount 422
offsetof: sparecyl 424
offsetof: spare2 426
offsetof: ilfact 430
offsetof: ncyl 432
offsetof: nacyl 434
offsetof: ntrks 436
offsetof: nsect 438
offsetof: spare3 440
offsetof: partitions 444
offsetof: magic 508
offsetof: csum 510
Test checksum is 0

I think the problem may be with the way fdisk is creating the labels. Here is how they are doing it.

typedef struct {
       unsigned char info[128];   /* Informative text string */
       unsigned char spare0[14];
       struct sun_info {
               unsigned char spare1;
               unsigned char id;
               unsigned char spare2;
               unsigned char flags;
       } infos[8];
       unsigned char spare1[246]; /* Boot information etc. */
       unsigned short rspeed;     /* Disk rotational speed */
       unsigned short pcylcount;  /* Physical cylinder count */
       unsigned short sparecyl;   /* extra sects per cylinder */
       unsigned char spare2[4];   /* More magic... */
       unsigned short ilfact;     /* Interleave factor */
       unsigned short ncyl;       /* Data cylinder count */
       unsigned short nacyl;      /* Alt. cylinder count */
       unsigned short ntrks;      /* Tracks per cylinder */
       unsigned short nsect;      /* Sectors per track */
       unsigned char spare3[4];   /* Even more magic... */
       struct sun_partition {
               __u32 start_cylinder;
               __u32 num_sectors;
       } partitions[8];
       unsigned short magic;      /* Magic number */
       unsigned short csum;       /* Label xor'd checksum */
} sun_partition;
