I had a similar problem. I updated the kernel (yum update) and installed the zfs packages. My kernel showed one version, while the sources showed an updated version. Had I rebooted after the update, the zfs installation would have worked. Your hint gave me the required clue

Thanks for your comment. I can also add one more thing: At least in Debian it seems to be important to install the linux-headers-* package first before upgrading the kernel (linux-image-*). That way it works for me.
