I've discovered the source of the problem.

zpool create -f -o failmode=continue -R /a -m legacy -o 
cachefile=/etc/zfs/zpool.cache rpool c1t0d0

It seems a root pool must only be created on a slice. Therefore 

zpool create -f -o failmode=continue -R /a -m legacy -o 
cachefile=/etc/zfs/zpool.cache rpool c1t0d0s0

will work. I've been reading through some of the ZFS root installation stuff 
and can't find a note that explicitly states this although a bit of bing'ing 
and I found a thread that confirmed this.
