Finally :) (needed to recompile gdb in aout format for it to recognise the
kernel)

Here's the stack trace:

And lo and behold I discover that my ffs_softdep.c is a copy and not
a symlink!  Oops. (bows head in shame).

It did show that gdb perhaps should be worked on though to have both
elf and aout support.


Panic over.

Thanks guys :)
