Installed a kernel based on yesterday's src/ tree.
The kernel panicked and the generated core seems
to be corrupt. Is there a known issue with getting
core dumps on x86_64 freebsd? The top of the
core.txt.0 file shows
troutmask.apl.washington.edu dumped core - see /usr/tmp/vmcore.0

My was doing the following when the panic occurred:
1) Running rsync via cron to back up /usr/home accounts from
/dev/ad6s1f to /dev/ad4s1f. Both file systems use
softupdates+journaling.
2) Building ports/www/firefox (which is version 3.6.8)
3) Running the GCC dejagnu testsuite for the gfortran compiler
4) Using firefox-3.5.11 to view a site that drives the Xorg
srever to 90% CPU usage.
