I would post to -current about 6.x issues, as it's not yet considered a 
-STABLE branch.  If it's an mpt problem, the likely contact is Scott Long 
(scottl@), who most recently did cleanup and bug fixing of mpt (July 10).

Lukas Ertl (le@) is probably the starting contact of choice for gvinum 
issues, although there's also a geom mailing list which might be a good 
place to send e-mail.

It could, though, easily be an interrupt-related problem of some sort -- 
e-mail with Scott should hopefully quickly determine if it's the driver, 
an interrupt problem, or a problem that should be in the hands of Lukas.
