>Description:
System panics with at Trap 12 when attempting to mount a MFS filesystem.  A DDB trace at the time of the panic is inside of checkalias().
>How-To-Repeat:
Run mount -t mfs /dev/da0s1b /tmp on any -current system.
>Fix:
Luoqi Chen suggested changing NUMCDEV in src/sys/kern/kern_conf.c to 255. v1.39 of kern_conf.c has NUMCDEV at 256. Tested here and works fine.

Apparently MFS uses CDEV 255 for it's own twisted purposes.
