I did configure it as a spare, and remove it as a spare, but I 
haven’t moved any disks physically since the once when I 
switched it in.  And this problem started before I ever tried
adding da10 into the pool as a spare.

I am sure, and I didn’t even need the -f.  But, no change.

% sudo zpool labelclear /dev/da10
Password:

% sudo zdb -l /dev/da10
failed to unpack label 0
failed to unpack label 1
failed to unpack label 2
failed to unpack label 3

% sudo zpool replace tank da3 da10
cannot replace da3 with da10: already in replacing/spare config; wait for completion or use 'zpool detach'
