This looks like a usage error on my part.  I was using what I thought 
was the default value for nsegments in the dma tag, and letting this
propogate though.  Unfortunately, the system then tried to allocate
a very large array off of the stack which caused the problems I was seeing.

Sorry for the confusion.
