Sorry, I needed the system back up, so I rebuilt without the multi-CPU
options (SMP and apic) since this is really a single-CPU machine.  Thus
far, it has not crashed, and it has done _many_ package builds.  If it
crashes again, I'll be sure to get the additional info.  No, I did not
have INVARIANTS or WITNESS enabled in the kernel.  I still do not.
