The above statement is no longer actually true.  OpenZFS is no longer 
"based" on the Illumos implementation and FreeBSD 13 is re-based on 
OpenZFS which was itself essentially re-based on ZFS on Linux (ZOL). 
This definitely benefits FreeBSD 13 since it is unshackled from 
Illumos shims and assumptions.

So now Illumos selectively pulls in interesting improvements from 
OpenZFS but OpenZFS has diverged.
