Is that accurate?  I understand if the S11 version is ahead of illumos, of
course I can't use the same pools in both places, but that is the same
problem as using an S11 pool on S10.  The author is implying a much worse
situation, that there are zfs "tracks" in addition to versions and that S11
is now on a different track and an S11 pool will not be usable elsewhere,
"ever".  I hope it's just a misrepresentation.
