same error when i tried a different disk, c2t0d1.  i ended up physically
removing c2t0d0 from the system, creating the new pool, and then adding
c2t0d0 back ... booted without errors.

i wasn't about to try -f for fear of what might happen to c2t0d0.

later on when i am done with the new pool (it's temporary space) i will
destroy it and try to recreate it and see if i get the same error.  i
am still looking for the answer to this if anyone has any ideas or wants
me to collect any debug data.
