  That's not it.  ;)  I've been using dumpdev ever since I started tracking
-STABLE.  If I induce a manual panic, or when I had sound related panics
ealier this year, I'd get a core dump.  It's specifically w/ this pass/ahc
problem that I can't get a dump.  :(  Thanks for the response though.  <grin>
