I have a FreeBSD 12.1p3 (just updated) root-on-zfs system that's
having trouble doing Poudriere builds.

It started off life as a FreeBSD 12.1 system and has been building
it's own set of packages using Poudriere successfully since its
inception.

I few updates ago I started seeing errors in the Poudriere builds.

I'm trying to run one now and am seeing the errors again.  Here's an
example:

[...]
[00:30:24] [02] [00:00:00] Building devel/py-more-itertools at py37 | py37-more-itertools-8.2.0
cannot rollback 'zroot/poudriere/jails/12_1-ports_and_hartzell-ref/02': there is a snapshot or bookmark more recent than 'zroot/poudriere/jails/12_1-ports_and_hartzell-ref/02 at prepkg'
[00:30:26] [02] [00:00:02] Error: Unable to rollback zroot/poudriere/jails/12_1-ports_and_hartzell-ref/02 to prepkg
=>> Error: Unable to rollback zroot/poudriere/jails/12_1-ports_and_hartzell-ref/02 to prepkg
[...]

After crashing, I can hit ^T and see:

a bit later, that builder seems to recover and continue sucessfully
with new jobs:

[...]

I'd like to get it working normally again.

Any ideas what might be going wrong?
