swell.k@gmail.com wrote to me and suggested the following fix:

--- /usr/src/etc/rc.d/hostid

 #

 # PROVIDE: hostid

 # PROVIDE: zfs

This puts /etc/rc.d/zfs before /etc/rc.d/fsck in the boot process, which
fixes the problem perfectly.  There don't appear to be any unintended
consequences that I can see.
