My dual-CPU DS20 Alpha box can more or less consistently be

0xfffffc006052d260 unlocking
cpuid = 1
KDB: enter: panic

Trigger is a "make -j2 release".  j2 seems to be needed, not seen it with
-j1

Unfortunately after printing the line with "KDB" the whole thing appears to become completely catatonic :(

Try putting a call to critical_enter() towards the beginning of panic(). Sometimes this increases the reliability of entering the debugger by avoiding interrupt delivery during the process of entering. If you want to be able to continue out, you'll need a critical_exit() at the end, but that generally isn't helpful for panic().
