Can I suggest that if you get no replies on questions@ that you try 
hackers@ (you may need to subscribe to post, not sure).

What's going on here is not normal so even someone with tons of FreeBSD 
experience may never have seen something like this.  I know I never 
have.  Most posters here are not kernel hackers.

Well, if you could only find one somewhat relevant topic with google, 
then "sometimes" would be "almost never".  I appreciate that you are 
frustrated because it *is* happening to you, but your problem is not a 
common one so may take more than a post on questions to resolve.
