(This was originally posted to freebsd-hackers, I'm reposting following 
email suggestions.)

We've observed a panic in FreeBSD 7 (7.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD) several 
times that we've not been able to track down.  Upgrading is not an 
option at this time.

Does this look at all familiar to anyone?  Here's an example stack trace 
after panic:

spin lock 0xffffffff8086bdc0 (smp rendezvous) held by 0xffffff0006d1f000 
(tid 100060) too long
panic: spin lock held too long
cpuid = 0
KDB: stack backtrace:

ast() at 0xffffffff803425f7 = ast+0x337
Xfast_syscall() at 0xffffffff80494efd = Xfast_syscall+0xdd
--- syscall (32, FreeBSD ELF64, getsockname), rip = 0x800df4d5c, rsp =

KDB: enter: panic

  The panic always shows up from a syscall, and almost always from 
syscall 32, getsockname, but we've also observed it with syscall 5.
