Current ZFS code is able to import the pool in question without complaint
(# zpool import -D -f -R /bsdr -N -F -X 12018916494219117471 rescue)
The pool is now named "rescue". Nice output with the history command:

#zpool history -il rescue
History for 'rescue':

PROBLEM: Unfortunately, even though zpool gets mounted 'ls' shows nothing.
Therefore, I need to rollback the ZFS history. I have found two options for
this:
1. Manual (using history output)
2. This script:
http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_forensics_scrollback_script
There are many other resources, but the above seems to have boiled it down
to the essence. On the down side, I modified the script to only list its
findings rather than actually do the disk write and ran it. Two hours later
script + HDD is still working (I suppose that should be expected).

I really have no preference regarding methods other than what is the most
simple and direct one, but I choose to ask for input before trying it on the
HDD to be rescued.

Regards.
