Interesting, thanks for the confirmation.  I don't have any ZFS
systems using log devices, so can only go by what's in the docs.

May want to make a note that the man page (at least for ZFSv15 in
FreeBSD 8.1) includes several sections that use "zpool detach" when
talking about log devices.

If that's still in the man page for ZFSv28, it'll need to be cleaned up.
