The strings "panic" and "-o reserve" are mentioned in neither mdmfs(8) nor in 
rc.conf(5)... Is one supposed to look elsewhere?

Worse, the use of malloc-based mds is touted in rc.conf as something, that is 
supposed to help "system stability at low memory conditions".

All I did on this system, was set 

	tmpmfs="YES"
	tmpsize="2048m"

in the /etc/rc.conf.

Alex has already said, that using malloc-backed md is a bad default -- do you 
disagree?
