All I can do is join these 3 observations together so far. My ongoing notes are in http://berklix.org/~jhs/src/bsd/fixes/FreeBSD/src/gen/sys/boot/i386/\ Makefile.skip_broken_zfsboot.REL=7.3-RELEASE.diff Which contains all further URLs to mails PR etc. Before people ask me "What did you do to clear it ?" I ran my patch above, & after a make ; make install ; make world , whatever I then no longer needed my patch on the cured machine. If I could be clearer I would, but it goes away.
