Hmm, in that case I guess my warning should be removed 8-/.
But the bug:
https://www.illumos.org/issues/8303
Says:
"The current biosdisk interface is implemented assuming 512B sector
size, with 8+TB disks, there are already systems reporting 4096B sectors
and this does break the gptzfsboot and loader as both are using libi386
biosdisk interface."
Which seems to pretty clearly implicate bog-standard 4k sector disks...

Unless yours are 4k physical 512b logical? Dunno, clarification much
appreciated as non-booting systems cause much sadness :(.
Thanks...
