Commits shortly after 3/10 are causing weirdness.

Looks like this has been happening (at least for me) after 3/10.  Last 
night, I came home from work, touched my keyboard, and it panic'd.  I 
thought it was strange, the machine was on all day and I was logging in 
and out at various times from work.

After a few reboots, I noticed that it wasn't panicking in the same 
place.  Sometimes before mounting.  Sometimes while running init. 
Sometimes while starting sendmail.  Sometimes not at all. Once, I 
thought it was up, but with the console was hosed, so I tried to telnet 
in from my wife's system.  That succeeded,  caused it to panic, and the 
message was:

remaking ttyp0

don't do that
panic...

I have seen disappearing devices like /dev/null and stderr missing at 
boot time or just going away while the system is up.
