I am not sure about your main error, but as for rpool import - yes, it should 
be done -N without automounts (even of 'rpool' dataset itself), then the 
selected rootfs is mounted as root, then its children if appropriate for the 
structure, then everything else. So '/a not empty' was due to operator error ;)
