Did you test non-GPT booting?  You updated BOOT2SIZE in its Makefile but 
ignored the comment:

# We currently allow 32768 bytes for zfsboot - in practice it could be
# any size up to 3.5Mb but keeping it fixed size simplifies zfsldr.
# 
BOOT2SIZE=	65536

If you want to use a larger size, you have to change zfsldr.S as it has a 
hardcoded sector count that it loads off of disk:

		.set NSECT,0x40
...

main.5: 	mov %dx,MEM_ARG			# Save args
		movb $NSECT,%dh			# Sector count
		movl $1024,%eax			# Offset to boot2
		callw nread.1			# Read disk

Since 0x40 * 512 = 32k, zfsldr.S is only going to load the first 32k of 
zfsboot into RAM.  If you need to bump this size up, you need to update the 
comment and NSECT in zfsldr.S.
