>Description:
I am still having problems getting ipfw, bridging and dummynet to be
stable. 4.1 and 4.2 caused panics upon startup. 4.2-Stable allows it
to run (yeah!) but it is still unstable. About every hour or so it
reboots. Sometimes it reboots 5 or 6 times in a few minutes time. There
is no pattern. However if I disable bridging it will runs fine.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install ipfw, bridging and dummynet on a 4.2-STABLE release. Run it for
a few hours and you'll get a panic/reboot sometime during that period.

>Fix:
I tried the patch mentioned in PR23187 but it didn't help any. Rebooted
again in less than an hour. No fixes are known to me. (Other than disabling
bridging which I can't do.)
