I posted a similar question last week, to no avail.

I too am getting the very same kernel messages, however, If it helps,
I'm -not- running GateD. The system runs FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE, IPFW
with Dummynet, and Squid-2.1-RELEASE... at the start I suspected that
squid was the culprit.

Also, the box appears to be dirtly rebooting itself every few days.
The (neg refs) messages are the only ones left in /var/log/messages.
Could this be a contributing factor? Sadly, I've not been sat at the
console at the time it's crashed out yet, so I haven't got any other
error output.

Could you perhaps shed any more light on the matter?
