I have found a way to extract the core, I uploaded it here:
http://mariannecatroux.com/tmp/vmcore.0.gz

The panic message is:
savecore: reboot after panic: Lock drmslk not exclusively locked @ 
/root/freebsd-base-graphics/sys/modules/drm2/i915kms/../../../dev/drm2/i915/i915_gem.c:1029

Hope it helps,
