Subject:   Panic with ahc driver

  I'm getting:

panic: ahc1:A:0: Target did not send an IDENTIFY message.  LASTPHASE =
0x0, SAVED_TCL = 0x0


  on a 2.1.7 system.  Since it appears that 2.1.7 and 2.2 have the same
ahc driver, I guess it would happen there too.

  I'm using a Adaptec 3940UW and several Seagate Barracuda 4LP drives.

  I reliably reproduce this panic by running 4 parrallel "dd" processes
for 1 to 2 hours (write file, delete, write file, delete, etc).

  tagenable is on, but the panic occurs without or without tagged
commands.

  I've looked at the code, and there is a comment in NO_IDENT case about
alternatives to a panic.  Is it really that serious?  If I converted the
panic() call to a printf() could I really break something badly? :)
