I initialized a new whole-disk pool on an external USB drive, and then did
zfs send from my big data pool and zfs recv onto the new external pool. 
Sometimes this fails, but this time it completed.  Zpool status showed no
errors on the external pool.

Zpool export hangs, with  no apparent disk activity.

The processes involved can't be killed even with kill -9, either.

I'm seriously considering unplugging the external drive, rebooting the
system, and seeing what I've got.  Any other ideas?

Any idea why this kind of thing happens so often?
