IIRC only uncultivated land was seized (or was intended to be seized; I can't recall how advanced the scheme was at the time of the coup).

Besides, the problem with what Mugabe did over land in Zimbabwe isn't so much that land was taken from one group and given to another, but the way it was done (including driving the agricultural workers off the farms and smashing up machinery) and who it was given to (ie; Mugabe's cronies in Zanu-PF).
Mugabe has done a lot worse than just the land "reforms" anyway.
