With a bit more investigation :

on a separate ssh session, top is still live and shows processes stuck as :
24523 root             1  76    0  1888K   764K *Name   1   0:00  0.00% make

on still another machine, running Witnesses (all other machines run with a 
lean GENERIC, with most of the debuging features commented out) :
System call __getcwd returning with the following locks held:
shared rw Name Cache (Name Cache) r = 0 (0xc0ee7e1c) locked 
_at_ /usr/src/sys/kerne/vfs_cache.c:974
panic: witness_warn
cpuid = 0
KDB: enter: panic
