I'm a little unclear on exacly what you're seeing.  Do you see
something like "panic: machine check" and then the 660?  Is the
message coming from FreeBSD or from the SRM?

At any rate, you might try upgrading the firmware to the lastest you
can get your hands on (that solves some problems with the console
being unusable after a halt & might fix problems with rebooting).

Also, when 4.1 comes out, you should really consider upgrading.  There 
have been countless bugfixes & features added since 3.x
