That's not a bug, and the behavior isn't changing.  zpool list shows the
size of the entire pool, including parity disks.  You cannot write user data
to parity disks/devices.  I suppose you could complain that the zpool list
command should account for user data as well as parity data being subtracted
from the entire pool, bug regardless, you shouldn't be using zpool list to
track your data usage as it doesn't "hide" parity space like the standard
userland utilities.

df shows the space available minus the parity device(s).
