Just to make sure nothing really funky was happening, I blew away my
/usr/obj filesystem (zfs delete vault/usr/obj;zfs create vault/usr/obj)
and rebuild world/kernel and installed same.

During the reboot I turned off cron and moved the stats files to a separate
directory, so now my stats directory has a full history (at least as soon as
cron comes up) of this boot.

I'll see what we get when it crashes next.

I'm still very interested in helping to get to the bottom of this  and will
supply whatever information I can.

Please feel free to ask.

I want to help.

I can give ssh accounts to any @FreeBSD.org dev that wants to look around.
