Since nobody seems to have a clue and I didn't want to give up - neither install from scratch - , I kept playing. Suddenly everything was back in place, after I hit by intuition % zfs set mountpoint=legacy home
It beats me, why and how this brought back the desired state, since I had issued % zfs set mountpoint=/export/home home % zfs set mountpoint=/export/home home/home before, seemingly without success at 'mount -a'; and mnttab contains home/home /export/home zfs Thanks to everyone who tried to help out and answer my original question; especially to Andrew, who contributed almost everything to replicate and import the pool !
