I have not done this before.

The GENERIC kernel already contains "makeoptions DEBUG=-g" (at least it 
is in /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/GENERIC and there are all this large 
/boot/kernel/*.symbols). Is there anything else needed? (I do not need 
all the stuff that Ken Smith took out just before RC1 in r226405 just to 
get a trace, since I do not want to do online debugging, or do I need it 
anyhow?)

 From 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html 
, I thought that setting dumpdev="AUTO" in /etc/rc.conf was enough to 
get a dump in /var/crash/ after the next boot to multiuser. That does 
not seem to be the case for me. What else do I have to do?

Cheers,
Jan Henrik
