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.
