For the server that I'm fighting with right now, where Dmitry pointed out 
that it looks like a deadlock issue ... I have dumpdev/savecore enabled, 
is there some way of forcing it to panic when I know I actually have the 
deadlock, so that it will dump a core?

DDB is a difficult option, since a keyboard isn't always attached to the 
server when it boots ...

Thx
