This fixes the panic.  It appears there's also another bug in dump
though.  When I run dump I get this:

[10:15pm] brooks@minya (~): sudo dump -a -f /dev/null /var
Password:
  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Wed Jun  5 22:16:09 2002
  DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
  DUMP: Dumping /dev/ad0s2e (/var) to /dev/null
  DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
  DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]
  DUMP: estimated 580085 tape blocks.
  DUMP: dumping (Pass III) [directories]
  DUMP: dumping (Pass IV) [regular files]
  DUMP: master/slave protocol botched.
  DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.

Any idea what this problem is?
