Hm. So far as I can find from googling, ZFS doesn't support O_DIRECT,
or if it does the support is very new. However, if that were the
problem then you ought to be seeing EINVAL or similar, not ENOENT;
and what's more the file should have gotten created before we'd try to
open it with O_DIRECT, so it should have been there after --noclean.
So I'm still baffled. Back to wondering if strace will show anything
interesting.
