Yes, these are only warnings.

Looks good.

Can you remember when the panics started, e.g. after a specific OS
update?
IMO the best thing to do is to build a debugging kernel and see, if you can
get a backtrace of the crash:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html
Once you have it, send it to the current at freebsd.org list, together with
a description of the problem.
