hmm, hard to tell what happened I guess. the zoneadm delete was run was it? or is this some kind of say veritas cluster env, where the zonecfg did not get propogated to the node in question? I'm not in development, but I'd tend to agree that if such an inconsistency is detected, it would be good if we could somehow force the cleanup. But I'd let zones dev comment more on that one.
