When using ZFS on Linux it is quite normal and expected to have pool
components that are symlinks. /dev/disk/by-uuid/uuuuu -> /dev/sdb
et cetera. I also have a NetBSD system where I have manually created
such symlinks for the components, so I would much prefer it if this
continues to work as before.
