Except that it's the pooling (hardlinking) that makes pool synchronization suck so badly. Although perhaps ZFS mirror might make that better, I'd much rather disable pooling entirely (disable the linking process), and then just use rsync to sync the backuppc/pc tree between primary and secondary hosts.
