An application should not cause a kernel panic if it only uses the system calls documented in section 2 or the library functions documented in section 3 of the manual. I highly doubt that the Diablo developers are meddling with kernel structures directly, therefore it is indeed a FreeBSD problem if a kernel panic occurs.
