In case anyone still cares, and if a VM running in Parallels on an OS X box
is a good enough test for people...
Matthew's answer tested out as being correct. The VM booted correctly
after the binary update, but failed after upgrading the version of the
zpool. Notably, `zpool upgrade -a` mentioned this in it's output, and gave
the command to fix the problem. (Which would update the bootloader.)
