I dont think my crashes are heat related because the system runs
fine on a kernel built from ctm-src-cur delta 3139 sources.

I really think that there is something screwey with recent current.

Compiling in options NO_F00F_HACK didn't help so its not that.

Maybe its John Polstra's recent changes... I dont know.  I think there
may still be some vnode related deadlocks happening.

Take that last paragraph with a grain of salt as I have no experience
in diagnosing these things.  Thats just the feeling I get with the
timing of these problems.

"If it is true that our Universe has a zero net value for all conserved
quantities, then it may simply be a fluctuation of the vacuum of some
larger space in which our Universe is imbedded. In answer to the
question of why it happened, I offer the modest proposal that our
Universe is simply one of those things which happen from time to time."
