--- Comment #14 from jwdevel at gmail.com ---
Although I have never gotten a system freeze or panic, I have seen this issue
of not being able to access the .zfs/snapshot/xyz mount.

For instance:
  $ ls /myvolume/.zfs
  ls: snapshot: Bad file descriptor
  shares

For me, I have had success manually mounting the snapshot. Adding this advice
in case others like me hit this issue, as the "manual mount" option does not
seem to be well-documented - no reference to ZFS in mount(8) or nmount(2), for
instance. I had to look at some ZFS-on-Linux sites to discover it (:

  $ mount -t zfs dataset at snapshot /mountpoint

(replace with args appropriate for your system, of course)

System info:
  FreeBSD FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE-p17 #0 r268574 amd64
  ZFS 5, pool version 28
