You're right -- even with ggatel modified to call mlockall(), it still freezes 
when the VM gets stressed:

swap_pager: I/O error - pageout failed: blkno 10787,size 20480, error 0
(a constant stream of these filling up the console, different blknos and 
sizes)

Odd thing is, the system is still pingable over the network, but for some 
reason I can't break into DDB from the console.

Oh well, no big deal, it was a crazy long shot to begin with :)  I'll just go 
back to swap-over-md-over-vnode-on-ufs-over-vinum :D

Thanks,
Craig
