Julian, I have, as far as I can judge, the very basic system:
just P-120, 32M ram, IDE HDD -- that's all. I inserted my kernel
config at the bottom. Only /usr/obj is mounted with softupdates.
I managed to crash my system with 'make -j32 buildworld'. The only
thing I was doing at the same time was small shell script which
created ~30 empty dirs, end in each of them another ~30 empty dirs
(just for benchmarking -- the same squid does, and it takes quite
a lot of time on ufs).

The same system survived 'make buildworld' just before (without any -j#).

I've sent you a backtrace (pending ops), though I may repeat if it was
lost somehow. It _was_ with the latest softdep.h/ffs_softdep.c from
http://www.freebsd.org/~julian/.
