Here are a two things I did which seem to stop the Fatal trap 12's with FreeBSD-7.0-RELEASE (saw it 
on three different boxes):

  cvsup to FreeBSD-7.0-STABLE
  (Don't forget to change  SCHED_4BSD --> SCHED_ULE  as that is now the default on STABLE)
  disabled CARP

I don't know if it was the SCHED_4BSD, the CARP, or the combination, but my boxes seem stable now.

Just wanted to answer my own post in case anyone is searching for Fatal trap 12 cures for 
FreeBSD-7.0-RELEASE.  :)
