Here's what I know:  In zpool >= 19, if you import this, it will prompt you
to confirm the loss of the log device, and then it will import.

Here's what I have heard:  The ability to import with a failed log device as
described above, was created right around zpool 14 or 15, not quite sure
which.

Here's what I don't know:  If the failed zpool was some version which was
too low ... and you try to import on an OS which is capable of a much higher
version of zpool ... Can the newer OS handle it just because the newer OS is
able to handle a newer version of zpool?  Or maybe the version of the failed
pool is the one that matters, regardless of what the new OS is capable of
doing now?
