 I just had my biggest "duh" moment in a veeery long time.
 The above two "contributions" to this PR can probably be ignored.
 
 For the curious: I intended to do
 
 #; gpt create -f da2
 #; gpt add -t 6a898cc3-1dd2-11b2-99a6-080020736631 da2
 #; zpool create poolname da2p1
 
 but apparently, I created the pool on da2 instead, partially
 overwriting the GPT. And I managed to do this (count 'em) no less than
 THREE times!
 
 Like I said, DUH, and my apologies for the noise.
 
 Maybe we could turn the noise into a feature request: Perhaps zpool
 should be smart enough to recognize that the user is about to shoot
 his own foot and refuse to cooperate?
