Yes, you should be able to use it on another computer. All the zfs information is stored on disk. The one thing you need to be aware of is the version of ZFS your pool is using. Systems can read versions older than the one they support fine, but they won't be able to mount newer ones. You can check your version by running "zpool update", it won't make any changes but will report the version you're running.
For example OpenSolaris 2008.11 is running ZFS version 11, so you should be able to read any ZFS pool from versions 1 to 11 on there. It even works for multi disk ZFS pools, ZFS doesn't even care what order the disks are in. Regarding your other problem, it sounds like a driver bug to me. You might be better waiting for one of the more experienced chaps to reply, but I'd suggest filing a bug on that if nobody gets back to you.
