I was one of the victims of this bug, a while back.
Patched and ran a lot of diffs from avg@, even tried some stuff he wrote 
for -Current, but we got things working.
And in the end it was integrated into -STABLE. So I'm running an 
unpatched -STABLE, and I did not have the problem since.

Currently running:
9.1-STABLE FreeBSD 9.1-STABLE #172 r250288: Mon May 6 06:49:36 CEST 2013

And the system got rebooted only just this week for some maintenance.

So either you take a look at the -Current code to see if more changes 
have been made, or perhaps ask avg@ for suggestions.
