I can't cd or ls directories, I can't run any zfs commands, and I can't issue a reboot or halt. This is a hang. The machine is completely useless in this state. There is no disk or cpu activity churning. There's no pool (anymore) to be trying to resilver or whatever anyway.

I hadn't followed the entire discussion, but do you have the "failmode"
zpool property set to "wait" (the default)?  If so, can you reproduce it
with "failmode" set to "continue"?
