 * From: Matthew Dillon <dillon@apollo.backplane.com>

 *     I have occassionally seen this failure when setting vfs.vmiodirenable 
 *     to 1.  I have not seen it otherwise.
 * 
 *     Please upgrade your system to the latest ffs_softdep.c, vers 1.47.  This
 *     will fix a number of other problems but may not fix this one.
 * 
 *     If you can reproduce this bug reliably w/ the latest ffs_softdep.c then
 *     we may have a chance of finding it.

Ok, will do.

 *     I don't know about this one.

 *     This is new to me too.
 * 
 *     Any chance you can get a kernel core dump on these machines instead
 *     of just rebooting?  And have a debug kernel for them?

These are from kernel core dumps.  Yes, I can compile a debug kernel.

 *     Yes, the fsck thingy happens to me too though if this is a Dec 26
 *     kernel you should definitely update it -- I seem to recall something
 *     related to fsck being fixed around that time frame and there was a
 *     softupdates fix after that time frame for a bug occuring before the
 *     time frame committed as well (separate from the current spate of 
 *     softupdates issues).

I'm trying to do that for the last few days but "make world" never
completes.... :<
