Got a chance to try a new kernel today with your patch. I tried to reproduce 
the panic by repeatedly copying a bunch of stuff onto /usr and deleting it
in one window, and in another repeatedly doing "make configure; make clean"
in one rather large port.  Lots of "Accounting suspended/resumed" messages
in the logs and no panics.  So it's looking good from here.
