Gah - I don't think there is a path to zpool downgrade.
But depending on the version of pool you are at and what the changes were, you might be able to do the sort of stuff discussed here: http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/message.jspa?messageID=303286 On the upgrading only bits, not the whole thing, I'm also afflicted with the Phenom-II bug of doom (and waiting on either a workaround or fix) and I don't know the answer. I have asked a few guys internal to Sun, but it might be worth a post to something like desktop-discuss at opensolaris.org... Seems like something that would be nice to have an answer to in the long term so things like known package sets could be installed at will. hm! Nathan.
