The system still panics with the fxp card installed, as seen below. 
While I agree this panic looks different, taking out the fxp card and 
replacing it with xl(4) card stopped the panic.  I can also stop the 
panic and use the fxp card with the old kernel from Nov 25.

I'm not using any compiler flags in make.conf or src.conf.  I am using a 
  somewhat custom kernel:

include 	GENERIC
ident		DIDY

# Changes and additions
options         SC_PIXEL_MODE
options 	SC_HISTORY_SIZE=8192

options         ALTQ
options         ALTQ_CBQ
options         ALTQ_RED
options         ALTQ_RIO
options         ALTQ_HFSC
options         ALTQ_CDNR
options         ALTQ_PRIQ

#options 	KVA_PAGES=512

device		puc

I'll give GENERIC a go and see if that makes any difference.
