I have seen an odd problem twice this morning.

-CURRENT, current as of last night :-)

dmesg is:

This machine is one five running the same kernel and same software base 
(in a fault-resistant environment).

It has been running with a kernel circa March 11th without incident for 
more than two days.

Twice now in the last three hours it has locked up hard.  Keyboard input is
not accepted (not even the NUM LOCK!) so dropping to DDB to find out where
it is hanging up is impossible.

Nothing else has changed at all.

I suspect an external "packet of death".  One of our other systems was hit 
with a sustained LAND attack attempt (which failed to kill it) minutes 
before the first lockup incident on this system.

The commit logs say that the LAND attack vulnerability in -CURRENT was fixed
in January.  I don't know... this particular sequence of events, one out of
five machines hit, and a different one on the same network hit (and logged)
minutes before this one locks up?

I'm suspicious.  Is there anything outstanding in this area against
-CURRENT?
