It's caused a panic for me on 8.0-RC2/amd64. Seems a new problem,  
never saw a panic in this situation before.

How to reproduce: With /usr/src and /usr/obj in a dataset, just

cd /usr/src
make clean

Instant panic, in less than 20 seconds.

Trying to get panic information, unfortunately I'm running on VMWare  
Fussion and the silly thing doesn't offer the equivalent of a serial  
console.
