I'm seeing the same thing with 5.1-RC1.  Tried to mount an ISO image 
with mdconfig -a -t vnode -f isofile -u 0 and FreeBSD immediately 
panic-ed.  The iso file resided on a samba mount, which I had mounted 
with mount_smbfs.  I'll try cp-ing the file to my local UFS filesystem, 
and then try mdconfig, and see if I get the panic again.
