I spoke too soon. More particularly, during the zfs send/recv processes the 
receiving side reports 8k, but once the receive is done the volblocksize is 
reporting the expected value as sent with -R.

Hopefully, this is just a reporting bug during an active receive.

Note, this was observed with s10u7 (x86).

Thanks.
