There is nowhere near enough informatio to even begin to diagnose
this.  You must provide the following information:

	Version of FreeBSD
	Kernel configuration file
	Exact `tcpdump' command line
	All output generated by the panic

You should use the `send-pr' command to submit this information as an
official problem report.  Without this information, we cannot even
guess as to the cause of your problem.
