Just to follow up now the disks have fsck'd.  The kernel source was fairly
up-to-date with regards to recent threading and scheduling changes.  The
file revisions of interest appear to be:

  File           My Revision     CVS Revision
  sched_4bsd.c   1.64            1.64
 *kern_switch.c  1.91            1.92 (but only change is a ULE change?)
  kern_kse.c     1.200           1.200
  kern_thread.c  1.196           1.196
  kern_intr.c    1.115           1.115

I was able to get a core dump, but in the new world order I can no longer
use NIS, so it will take me a few minutes to get something useful out of
it.
