I still have this problem (I was msg34493 there).

My original plan was to wait for the Spring release, to get me to a stable
release on more recent code.  I'm still following that plan, i.e. haven't
done anything else yet.  At the time the "March" release was expected to
actually appear by April.

Other than trying more recent code, I don't recall any useful ideas coming
through the list.

It seems like the thing people recommend as the backup scheme for ZFS
simply doesn't work yet.
