This is perhaps more troubling...

[root at chaos ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=./zfstestfile bs=1000k count=100 &&
ggatel create -u 142 ./zfstestfile &&
zpool create -f testpool142 ggate142
100+0 records in
100+0 records out
102400000 bytes transferred in 0.266194 secs (384681697 bytes/sec)
[root at chaos ~]# zpool list

[root at chaos ~]# zpool export testpool142
[root at chaos ~]# ggatel destroy -u 142
[root at chaos ~]# ggatel create -u 142 ./zfstestfile
[root at chaos ~]# zpool import testpool142
cannot import 'testpool142': no such pool available
[root at chaos ~]# zpool import
[root at chaos ~]# ggatel list

Worse yet:

[root at chaos ~]# zpool create testpool ad0s1d
[root at chaos ~]# zpool export testpool
[root at chaos ~]# zpool import testpool
cannot import 'testpool': no such pool available
