Why is this a critical error, I thought you were supposed to be
able to save the output from zfs send to a file (just as with tar or
ufsdump you can save the output to a file or a stream) ?

Was the cause of the checksum mismatch just that the stream data
was stored as a file ? That does not seem right to me.
