I'm sorry about the problems. We try to be responsive to fixing bugs and
implementing new features that people are requesting for ZFS.
It's not always possible to get it right. In this instance I don't think the
bug was reproducible, and perhaps that's why it hasn't received the attention
it deserves. As far as I know yours is the second reported instance.
It may be that the problem has been fixed and that's why
we haven't seen it in-house. However, that's just speculation, and
some serious investigation is needed.

Neil.
