Well, now the bad free (actually appeared to me to be a bad malloc or a bad
call to malloc) is fixed; now I get a panic from GEOM (actually from 
witness).   There are 3 or 4 geom debug messages and then a panic 
indicating Giant not owned.  I'll follow up with an actual trace from a 
serial console soon if desired.  (it's a bit of trouble setting up the 
serial hookup.)

As a hint, maybe, I have 3 FBSD slices on this system; might that confuse
geom?  (1 each for current and stable, and a big one for home dirs etc.)

Slice table looks like
NTFS 8G (XP)
FBSD 4G (current)
FBSD 4G (stable)
FBSD 24G (data etc)

With the Sony bios, there is no trouble booting from things above the 8g
line, at least; stable boots and runs fine (but can't get to the CD/DVD
drive or builtin wireless), and X is even fairly stable. 

Also I get no fan control or display intensity control without acpi...
and APM doesn't work at all even though there is a bios entry.

I'm trying this with Terry's hint about PSE and PG_G, though I'd not
expect it to do much; they look pretty benign.
