I didn't know you could create a label within the mkswap command. I always used "e2label" as in:
e2label /dev/sda2 myswap
Try it with e2label just in case. Also, are you able to activate the swap using just the block device as reference?
Can't do that: e2label is *only* for an ext2/3/4 partition, and won't work with swap (or at least it didn't when I tried it last year). mkswap -L <label> /dev/sdx

I nodded. It was just one damned thing after another.
