 I can easily replicate this same problem, on a Dell PowerEdge 2550
 with onboard bge card (w/latest firmware, BIOS, etc.).
 
 It's happened as long as I've run FreeBSD on any Dell 2550, including
 5.4-RELEASE and now 6.0-RELEASE.  Using SMP and APIC as well.

 Using cvsup seems to trigger this much more frequently than anything
 else I've come across.  In fact, cvsup is the only thing I've come
 across that can reliably cause the problem to appear.
