I ran fstat | more on a SMP 6.0 machine with kernel from about a month
ago, which had a lot of files open.  It panicked with:

panic: vm_fault: fau

and got no further on the console, but I was able to break to DBB and
obtain the following traceback from fstat:

Note the deadc0de in generic_copyout().

There seem to be several other bugs here that show off the well-known
brokenness of panic() and related code on SMP machines.
