I would be very interested in helping you work on a fix, although I
haven't reproduced the problem locally. The time frame of the bug
suggests that this changeset introduced it:
http://hg.openindiana.org/onnv-gate/rev/b9f8177eb4e2

If you have ideas, let me know; I've filed
http://www.illumos.org/issues/336 to track this in Illumos.
