Very good to know!  I'm curious why we don't dump to the dumpdev at this 
point however?

I just finished a kernel from Nov 28 0800 UTC and no reset with 
comconsole.  It is possible that my update to 23:00:00 caught part but 
not all of a big commit finished at 23:13 UTC.

Now trying with the old 23:00:00 kernel... [boots.. startx]  Hehe. 
Guess what?

it's the uipc_socket panic.
