If I'm reading this correctly (very likely I'm not):

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-fs/2010-February/007805.html

This would imply the issue may be relieved by setting snapdir=visible on
the filesystem.  If it works as a workaround, great, but be aware this
may not be ideal for everyone.

Please try it and report back.
