I'm not surprised. If it crashed for local accesses, I would
suspect people would have reported it much sooner.

I also suspect it only happens for NFSv4 mounts, since those
try and cross server mount points.

Since I don't understand ZFS, I have just posted a query on
freebsd-fs@, which I hope will get noticed by people who
may know why ZFS is doing this.
