Just for the records, I stumbled upon something similar some time ago 
while testing with a co-worker. We both had 6.2-PRERELEASE installed. I 
cannot remember if the same command sequence led to the panic, but we 
were mimicking each other's commands (with the adequate changes for each 
host of course), and both machines panicked on the same command.
