Does BREAK work under normal circumstances (i.e. before crashing)?
It should drop you to ddb, from where you can type c to continue.
If the watchdog is enabled doing this will trigger a reboot if you
don't continue quickly enough.

it's much spammier to *not* include it, then be asked to send it,
then to say "no".

that says nothing about the exact OS version you have installed.
or how the particular kernel you're running picks up the devices
on your particular hardware.
even making people stop and think, "oh that's a net5501, hmm that
has a geode cpu so it _must_ be running some i386 kernel" (even if
they already know and don't have to stop reading mail and go into
a web browser and look it up) wastes their time.
the point of including dmesg is to include relevant details in one
place, to save time for people who might be interested in looking
into the problem.
and in any event, google does not easily find me a dmesg from a
net5501 with an RT2860 running OpenBSD.

well, I have seen the problem from 5958 on one busy AP with a larger
range of clients, but never seen it on my home AP in a relatively
uncrowded area RF-wise with just a couple of OpenBSD clients...
but the problem one is quiet over the winter, so I can't tell if the
fixes from early December helped yet.
FWIW, here's how it looks in the alix2c3 (working).
