Solved.
I got into the situation by accidentally trying to ftp ~xml files onto
the same server rather that the other cluster node.
I've been lucky to this point as I haven't botched a zone install.
Typical implementation environment: networks not ready, not all ip
addresses and host names not assigned; server hosts files and naming
services incomplete; and we are the ones on the hooks for delivery on
schedule.
Just deleting the (now 0-sized) ~.xml files and their entries in the
index did not work.
Zoneadm would still report that the zone existed and they were in a
poor state.
A global search of *zone* from ./* pointed out some lock files in /tmp
and zone-specific references under /var/...../OLD/
Don't which were the key, but deleting these files and a reboot of the
server solved the issue.

Thanks for the reply, Mike
