Well, like most things in life you should give a try. I have made some
type of action plan for you:

1) Compile a kernel with the options mentioned by Kostik at
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kernel=
debug-deadlocks.html
2) Set the sio flags to 0x80 of consoles on the local machine per
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kernel=
debug-online-gdb.html
3)get a copy of DDD if you want to
4) start having fun
