Well, not a bug. Seems the user ( me ) did not set zfs_enable="YES"
and therefore, well gee, it isn't enabled.  What a sad state of
affairs to waste peoples time. I will try the re-install again and
this time I need to find a shell prompt somewhere to set that
variable. 

The trick seems to be to get a shell after the initial bsdinstall
does the goodness.

                    ┌───────Manual Configuration──────────┐

                    ├─────────────────────────────────────┤
                    │         < Yes >     < No  >         │

well Yes we need to make an adjustment of course.

May as well change /etc/rc.conf and /boot/loader.conf : 

# 
# cat /etc/rc.conf
clear_tmp_enable="YES"
syslogd_flags="-ss"
hostname="pluto"
ifconfig_em0="inet 172.16.35.42 netmask 255.255.255.192"
defaultrouter="172.16.35.1"
ifconfig_ix0="inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 mtu 9000"
sshd_enable="YES"
ntpdate_enable="YES"
ntpd_enable="YES"
powerd_enable="YES"
# Set dumpdev to "AUTO" to enable crash dumps, "NO" to disable
dumpdev="AUTO"
zfs_enable="YES"
rpcbind_enable="YES"
nfs_server_enable="YES"
mountd_enable="YES"
# 

# cat /boot/loader.conf
kern.vt.splash_cpu=1
geom_mirror_load="YES"
security.bsd.allow_destructive_dtrace=0
kern.geom.label.disk_ident.enable="0"
kern.geom.label.gptid.enable="0"
cryptodev_load="YES"
zfs_load="YES"
verbose_loading="YES"
# 

That solves that problem. Never was a bug unless we count the user PEBKAC.
