I think this is an artifact of a manual setup.  Ordinarily, if
booting from a zfs root pool, grub wouldn't even be able
to read the menu.lst if it couldn't interpret the pool format.

I'm not sure what the entire sequence of events is here,
so I'm not sure if there's a bug.   Perhaps you could elaborate.
