First of all PJD and all of the people involved with ZFS for FreeBSD, 
thanks a lot for all your efforts. I'm a happy user of ZFS :-)

Anyway, I was wondering ...  is this patch also applicable for 
7.0-RELEASE, or is it only for -CURRENT? If it's the former I'll go 
ahead and apply the patch to see if I run into any problems. I just 
don't have a kernel debugger enabled, nor do I have WITNESS in the 
kernel (for obvious reasons). I don't know if this is a major problem or 
not.

Sorry for the perhaps RTFM questions - I'm usually not really into this 
sort of stuff, but I'd like to help out where possible.

Thanks,
Jorn
