State-Changed-Why: 

To submitter:  I wonder if you are able to recreate this on a more
recent version of FreeBSD?  If so, can you explain exactly what
you mean by "crashes"?  Does the machine hang hard or reboot?  Do
you get any messages on the console?
Also, you mention that you are using ipfw.  Do you have any unusual
rules in your firewall, especially ones that look at user/group
information?
