Only with good reason.  This is the primary production backup system for
the office.  It's already got 300G worth of file volumes, and it backs
up over 100G to tape on the weekends, and ~500M each time it does
incrementals.

Missing a night's worth of backups won't end the world, but corrupting
a filesystem, or anything like that would be very bad :(

My plan at this point:
1) Upgrading to RELENG_6_1 tonight
2) See if the problem repeats this Saturday
3) If it does, grab another backtrace and put it out on freebsd-hackers@
   to see if anyone has any suggestions.

... although I'm open to suggestions.
