zfs code - Oct 2009 - Exported zpool cannot be imported or deleted.

I have an exported zpool that had several drives incur errors at the same time
and as a result became unusable.  The pool was exported at the time the drives
had problems and now I can''t find a way to either delete or import the
pool.

I''ve tried relabeling the disks and using dd to write several MB of
zero data to partition zero of every disk in the pool but the command
"zpool import" still shows the pool as available and all drives
online.

When I attempt to import the pool using "zpool import -f zpool1", the
system panics.

Is there any way possible short of reloading the OS and completely reformatting
the drives that I can get rid of this zpool?

Thanks,
