I've checked into -stable the fxp driver change that fixes some
random crashes. It might not be the cause of the crashes you have
seen, but it would be worth trying anyway. Either cvsup to -stable,
or just grab revision 1.110.2.26 of sys/dev/fxp/if_fxp.c from cvsweb
and use it instead of the 4.7-RELEASE version of that file.

Note that the above revision will not fix the problem if you have
"options DEVICE_POLLING" in your kernel config file. A fix for that
case should appear in the next week or two though.
