  It was imported, though not mounted, for a few minutes during which =
time I broke something I=E2=80=99m trying to recover, and a few minutes =
after until I exported it and started evaluating whether it was =
recoverable.

  Using zdb -ul, I see no tag=E2=80=99s around where I was aiming =
(7428), but I do see three in the 7300=E2=80=99s.  But, trying =E2=80=9Czp=
ool import -N -T 7375 tank=E2=80=9D produces the same error.  As with =
the other two txg=E2=80=99s (7378, 7381) I saw.

  Any other ideas, since it looks like =E2=80=9Cavailable transaction=E2=80=
=9D isn=E2=80=99t my [only] problem?

          - Chris
