Yes, that is absolutely correct.  For details, look at the start method
of svc:/system/filesystem/local:default, which lives in the script
/lib/svc/method/fs-local.  There you can see that ZFS is processed
after the vfstab.

The only way I could find was to set the mountpoint of the file system
to legacy, and add it to /etc/vfstab.  Here's an example:

  # ZFS legacy mounts:
  SHELOB/var - /var zfs - yes -
  SHELOB/opt - /opt zfs - yes -
  SHELOB/home - /home zfs - yes -
  #
  # -- loopback mount -- begin
  # loopback mount for /usr/local:
  /opt/local - /usr/local    lofs - yes ro,nodevices
  /home/cvs - /opt/local/cvs lofs - yes rw,nodevices
  # -- loopback mount -- end

Before I added /home to vfstab, the loopback for /opt/local/cvs would
fail.
