If your entire pool consisted of a single mirror of two disks, A and B,
and you detached B at some point in the past, you *should* be able to
recover the pool as it existed when you detached B.  However, I just
tried that experiment on a test pool and it didn't work.  I will
investigate further and get back to you.  I suspect it's perfectly
doable, just currently disallowed due to some sort of error check
that's a little more conservative than necessary.  Keep that disk!
