It is a ZFS issue.  My understanding is that ZFS has multiple copies of the 
uberblock, but only tries to use the most recent one on import, meaning that on 
rare occasions, it's possible to loose access to the pool even though the vast 
majority of your data is fine.

I believe there is work going on to create automatic recovery tools that will 
warn you of uberblock corruption, and attempt to automatically use an older 
copy, but I have no idea of the bug number nor status I'm afraid.
