For whatever it is worth, I have seen this three times over the past couple of weeks. My system is RELENG_7 of Feb. 7. I have no real information to add other than that I have also had this problem. When it happens, the only way out is a reboot. It hit me twice while updating Xorg. Thanks for your efforts! I hope someone can track down what is triggering with this. -- R.
