Dear Miroslav, Alexander

Thank you both for the pointers. As soon as the test machine finishes 
compiling the world (I am using vimage, need custom kernel), I will give 
that a try.

However, I did set up the things Miroslav suggested, along with tweaking 
the sysctl variables for jail zfs mount, and also setting the zfs 
jailed=on -- but on the existing system that had no effect whatsoever 
(even after a restart). So, I am thinking this might be due to the fact 
that all jails are nullfs mounted, hence the test box.

I will update once I get the chance to play with the information you two 
kindly provided and let you know how it goes.

Thanks and regards
SK
