If you have some other installed solaris system, attach
that opensolaris usb flash memory stick and run
"cdrecord -scanbus". What is reported in the scsi device
listing for the usb flash memory stick?
A "Disk" or a "Removable Disk" ? I suspect that you'll
find a "removable disk". That is, a scsi device with "removable
media".

That is OK for the "rpool" zfs filesystem. My os2008.11
bootable usb flash memory stick contains four files on
rpool:
# find /rpool -type f
/rpool/etc/bootsign
/rpool/boot/grub/bootsign/pool_rpool
/rpool/boot/grub/menu.lst
/rpool/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
The operatiing system is installed in a different zfs
filesystem: rpool/ROOT/opensolaris.

Somehow zfs gets confused by the s2 "backup" slice,
which overlaps the s0 zpool slice, but doesn't have the
same starting offset. My zfs bootable usb flash memory
stick shows the same "problem":
