Well, at this rate I can drop debugs on the lists at a rate of one per
day.

If they were up.  Thank god I have some personal archives...  Hope I'll
get some info from them.

Hah, reliable reproduction, try to let the box stay up for a day or two,
bang.

So far in this existance of the box, I have had 4 ffs panics and 1
tcp...  If this were a debug box I'd say ok, well cool...  But this is
in fact a machine so close to the RC of 4.0 that I am not sure I want to
run production servers on it.

Add to that mix that I am a b-rated coder, just learning about gdb, and
on filesystem level and even dumber than (insert locally dumb idiot
here).

Then the logical step might be to say, well, then the hardware must be
faulty...  No way Jose...  I have tested this box in every way possible,
even detected incorrect CAS/RAS latency settings on the box in the BIOS
for the memory.

Anyways:
