In that case i do not have it on, but I am having trouble replicating the
problem now. I have rebooted to the old kernel, without debugging. And i
still cant replicate the problem when doing a simultaneous make -j4
buildworld and buildkernel. And to top it off, the customer expects the
server in production in a few days :P If i can replicate the problem, i
will try these patches. FYI The system has frozen previously during normal
functions, not when doing compiles, but this seems to be very
intermittent.
