Hmm. Looks like a bug in PCFS' umount codepath, not properly syncing out pending data buffers. We've been suspecting something like this for a while, see http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6567607 Try calling "sync" before you do the eject. If that forces things to the stick then please log a bug.
