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 :)
