I'll look at your patch as soon as I get a chance.
I did manage to figure out that rearranging the arguments
worked around the problem.
If we want the 9.0 fwcontrol to work, doesn't kern/144843
need to be fixed? I'm not sure whether to blame the kernel
(shouldn't panic unless someone is doing something really screwy
like writing random junk into /dev/kmem) or the compiler (maybe
generating code that does something sufficiently screwy that the
kernel can't defend against it).
