I saw the same symptom when using the big patch for gjournal on 
RELENG_6 a few months ago. I didn't see the problem in 7-CURRENT, but 
gjournal had seen some updates in what was then HEAD since the patch 
for RELENG_6 was posted. I don't know what the cause or solution is/was 
to either problem, but it might be relevant.

You might want to post the output of "zpool list", "zfs list", and 
"dmesg" to the list so people can see your disk and filesystem layout.
