I've never seen this with tarsnap, but I used to regularly see warnings
about files with negative mtimes with Duplicity [1] (on Linux, ext4).

It's not necessarily something wrong with your zfs. It's probably just
some files copied over from a different filesystem with broken metadata.
The bug report below suggests files copied from Samba shares.

By the way, "touch -t 190001010000 foo" will happily create a file with
a negative mtime (at least on Linux, ext4).
