Hello,

I upgraded to the latest CURRENT, with this patch. My server ran 11 and a
half hours, then crashed again. Not with the usual panic (which this patch
would fix), but a very stange one.
It froze to death. No keyboard activity, no crashdump. On the console
there were cryptic errors, but sadly I couldn't scribe them down.

I will try to reproduce that in a simulated environment, I hope I can get
more details on this one.

Thanks,
