You need to do a gdb listing of the actual faulting IP address printed out in
the panic messages (part after colon of instruction pointer line).  Ah, I
think I know what is happening perhaps.  Your BIOS might be broken when we try
to route an interrupt.  Have you tried enabling ACPI?  The panic you are
getting I think comes from not having a valid curpcb yet, but that seems odd.

Ah, we never set it for proc0 during boot.  Try this patch:
