I'm having occasional panics when doing disk-intensive activities like a
buildworld or portupgrade, and I'm having trouble getting useful backtraces.
For some reason I can't get the kernel to write a dump out.  Most recently,
while updating the pkgdb, my system did this:

Nov 19 14:47:19 basement syslogd: kernel boot file is /boot/kernel/kernel
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel: Slab at 0xc165bfd4, freei 1 = 0.
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel: panic: Duplicate free of item 0xc165b0cc
from zone 0xc0a023c0(VMSPACE)
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel:
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel:
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel: syncing disks, buffers remaining... panic:
bremfree: bp 0xc251d26c not locked
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel: Uptime: 1d1h20m15s
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel: Dumping 63 MB
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel: ata0: resetting devices ..
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel: panic: bremfree: bp 0xc250f3e8 not locked
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel: Uptime: 1d1h20m15s
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel: Terminate ACPI
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel: Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a
key on the console to abort
Nov 19 14:47:19 basement kernel: Rebooting...

I have a dumpdev set up pointing to my swap space /dev/ad0s1b, I have DDB
and DDB_UNATTENDED built into the kernel.   I have a kernel with symbols in
to use for getting a backtrace, if I could get a core dump from the kernel.
What am I missing here?  If neccessary, is there a way to force a core dump
if I let it break into DDB and go sit at the console?
