how can I spot actual hash collisions in dedup?

Hi you all,

I've been using ZFS on Mac since 2008 (yeah, time flies...) and I'd like to say
thank you to all the devs of OpenZFS on OS X who have kept things alive and
moving forward! 2.0 in particular looks like a great step change! :-)

Now my question: I have a large pool with dedup=skein,verify that I'd like to
move to a new location. Is there a way for me using zdb, kstat.zfs, or whatever
to see if I do have any hash collisions in my pool? Because ... transferring without
the ,verify part would save me a few days time, but I'd want to be sure.

Thanks in advance for any advice or pointers,

Germano
