Known problem.  Fixed in -current.  If you have a debugging
kernel, go into gdb on the kernel.debug file, and print the
code at:

	> #6  0xc0213723 in generic_bzero ()
	> #7  0xc01cfef7 in ffs_vget (mp=0xc4c11800, ino=22283597,
	> vpp=0xf96f9d48) at ../../ufs/ffs/ffs_vfsops.c:1109

And then look at the same source code in -current to see the fix.

Sorry, I don't have your exact version of the source code, so I
can't do this for you.
