I can break into DDB from the serial console, but I can't get the system to  
generate a panic.  It prints "syncing disks..." and freezes.

	FreeBSD/i386 (vaio.lustig.com) (ttyd0)

	login: ~Stopped at      siointr1+0xb1:  jmp     siointr1+0x1a0
	db> panic
	panic: from debugger

	syncing disks...

  Is there a way from DDB to get a core other than calling panic?
