"zpool remove" failing

I'm grasping at straws here, but could this functionality be incomplete in
11.2-RELEASE?  Would connecting my disks to a 12.0-RELEASE system help?

It's easy for me to do that, but is it safe to move them to a 12.0-RELEASE
system, run the "zpool remove", then move them back to my 11.2-RELEASE
system?

Is there any diagnostic output I could share that would help?

I'm still confused by the error I'm getting from "zpool remove".. I'm
attempting to remove a top-level mirror vdev, and they're all the same
sector-size.
