Hi,
I reported this before, but I am very surprised that it is still the
case:
(This is from the last time it happened; this time the box rebooted
and cleared the serial console before I had time to cut/paste it.

The above panic will show up occasionally when logging out from a
serial console (i.e. ctrl-D, logout, exit, whatever). This is
EXTREMELY BAD, as it will crash an otherwise perfectly healthy box at
random - and renders the serial console useless.
Robert Watson confirmed this to be an issue on the 10th of April.
Anyone??
