But if you didn't have options DDB in your kernel, the db_trace.c file is not included in the kernel you built. And the changes to support.s and cpufunc.h merely converted a real function to an in-line function, and added a few previously non-existant in-line functions (which are only used by ddb at the moment), but otherwise there was no change. Even the function that was converted from real to in-line would only called in certain circumstances during a debugger trace trap, so I'm having a hard time pinning the problem on the above commits. If you get access to the machine again, see if you can hook the machine up to use a serial console or something and capture the bootup messages, a verbose boot would be good. Post that out and somebody may spot something. Also, you mentioned the date of the 13th, how about a more recent -stable snapshot? What was the latest snapshot you tried?
