Sorry I didn't speak to that in the original note.  The gdb output included
in the first note was from a kernel built with config -g.

No.  The machine is less than a week old.  In fact, I _was_ going to try
installing 2.2.5, but I didn't see it on the ftp archives once I thought
about trying to retrograde.  Are the older releases tucked further down in
the ftp directory, or maybe on a different server?

I'm a relative newbie; the 2.2.6 CDs are the first CDs I personally own. 
The FreeBSD boxes at work were installed by someone else.  He gave the 2.2.5
CDs to a student, assuming we wouldn't need them any more.  I'm trying to
track them down.
