Softupdates has known bugs relating to filesystem full conditions which
I believe Kirk is working on. There isn't much you can do until then
other then either disable softupdates or work to avoid the disk-full
condition. The panic does not occur very frequently so working
to avoid the disk-full condition is what I would recommend.
