The problem I'm getting with that compressor (and others) is that it
bails like this:

send from @ to vms/133 at 2016-01-07.0648 estimated size is 32.1G
total estimated size is 32.1G
cannot receive: specified fs (storage/snapshots) does not exist
Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal.
TIME        SENT   SNAPSHOT
-bash: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token |'
                  
[then get a load of binary garbled output and then a broken pipe error]

zfs send works fine if I don't try to compress the stream:

$ zfs send -Rv vms/133 at 2016-01-07.0648 | ssh backup@[redacted] zfs recv -Fdvu storage/snapshots
send from @ to vms/133 at 2016-01-07.0648 estimated size is 32.1G
total estimated size is 32.1G
TIME        SENT   SNAPSHOT
receiving full stream of vms/133 at 2016-01-07.0648 into
storage/snapshots/133 at 2016-01-07.0648
07:26:44    300K   vms/133 at 2016-01-07.0648
07:26:45   1.92M   vms/133 at 2016-01-07.0648
07:26:46   3.42M   vms/133 at 2016-01-07.0648

I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong with the pipes, but not sure
how to solve it...
