It looks like there have been a bunch of other folks
seeing this problem, based on a google search, with
it apparently improved in 6.2 so at least it doesn't
crash.  (Soren Schmidt, Oct 2006)

There is also PR "kern/113647" which was closed due
to an unfortunate lack of info. (remko, Jun 2007)

However, it seems to still be an issue in 6.2R/amd64.

I was tarballing 100G from NFS mounted drives to
local RAID-1.  If there is other relevant log info I
can provide to help track this down, please let me
know what best to provide.  I don't want to blindly
dump tons of maybe-relevant info to the list.
