Yes, because zpool version 28 is supported in Illumos.  I'm sure Oracle
Solaris does or will soon support it too.  According to Wikipedia, "the
9-current development branch [of FreeBSD] uses ZFS Pool version 28".

FYI, version 28 is the last Oracle-supplied open-source version, so
non-Oracle implementations will probably not support versions 29, 30, etc.
