Hi Arno!
Sorry, I somehow didn't have 651...@bugs.debian.org copied on my
previous mail so I'm inlining your mail for the benefit of the BTS:

I am not sure if checking for / being ZFS is good enough then. Wouldn't
we need to check for any file system being on ZFS to create a
zpool.cache file?
At boot time, GRUB must provide kFreeBSD with a zpool.cache so that it
can mount the root filesystem. After that I don't think it matters
about other partitions being on ZFS, because they can be scanned for, it
just may be a little slower first time around.
The zpool.cache is no longer needed in upstream FreeBSD svn trunk, though
this is not yet in any released version.
So, there is probably a limit on the duration this bug will be relevant
for.
