If you have multiple boot environments: do you have a non-affected BE
(prior to c32dde3166922f55927764464d13f1bc9640f5f6)?
So unfortunately i didn't have a recent BE, but I was able to do the
following to get back up:
1. download latest CURRENT snapshot memdisk from ftp.freebsd.org and put
it on a usb drive
2. boot via usb drive and enter live shell
3. load zfs kmod:
kldload zfs
4. import zroot:
zpool import -R /mnt/ zroot
5. mount ROOT filesystem:
zfs mount zroot/ROOT/default
6. copy usb loader to zroot:
cp /boot/loader /mnt/boot/loader
i'd recommend just using boot environments, it's much easier and is
specifically what they are for :)
