But the process that's inducing the panic *every time* is mysqld; this
you've already confirmed.  To me this means that mysqld is responsible
for tickling some sort of condition that causes a panic; it could be the
fault of mysqld or it could be the fault of FreeBSD.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is interesting, since your machine only has 8GB of RAM.  I am not
familiar with the amd64 platform, so it's possible that kern.maxdsiz
and kern.dfldsiz get set to something completely different than what I'm
used to seeing on i386.
