Now that the bug is confirmed to affect multiple users, allow me to post
the work-around I found, in hopes it will help address the issue.

I have installed grub-pc, grub-pc-bin, grub-common, grub2-common version 
2.01-22debian1+zfs3-0.6.3-2~wheezy and zfs-initramfs version  
0.6.3-0.27~21b446~wheezy, all downloaded manually from the zfsonlinux debian 
repository, and marked as held (apt-mark hold grub-pc ...).
In addition, I added zfsforce=1 to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/default/grub (I 
haven't checked if that's still required after the upgrade to zfs 0.6.3).

Finally, if one uses the root dataset (the one with the pool's name) for
the root filesystem instead of a child dataset, one has to remove the
trailing slash from the pool name after each update-grub. That's a
confirmed issue @ZoL, one for which I do not know if a decision has been
made yet.
