     Ah, yaaah.  Hmm ....

     This is the first I've heard of that, but I can see how that could
be.  Could vinum be considered to be a form of (unintentional)
write-caching?  

     That might explain how the filesystem got terribly hosed, but it
doesn't help with the panic.  Foo.

[ This is on a system that's been running in the current state for
  around a month.  So far, it's panic'd once (a week or so ago), and so
  I don't have any feel for long-term stability.  We'll see how it
  goes.  ]
