If I apply the attached diff to the kern_malloc.c, backing out a portion
of kern_malloc.c:1.99, the rate of panics plummets.  Previously, I could
have a box panic within five minutes of getting the crash boxes spinning. 
Now I've been going for about 40 minutes without any perceived failures
(i.e., no panics).  I have no idea why this fixes the problem, but David
Wolfskill pointed me at that particular revision as being a source of
related problems for him.  I'm going to leave the boxes running overnight
and see what I bump into.  It would be nice to know if this is masking the
problem, or fixing the problem, and if so, why.
