Here is an informative email from David Greenman:

I'd like everyone to note that for now, if you are providing user-access
to a 4.0 box (and you don't absolutely trust your users), you should be
using the RLIMIT_SBSIZE for limiting network memory usage just as
you use other RLIMITs for memory limiting, etc.

Not really. The fact is that a user program can crash

Surely the relevant patches should be backported to -release, then?

I have submitted a PR. Upon closer inspection
I found that it is not (directly) the call
to aio_read() that kills the machine, but
instead a call to sched_yield() after a call
to pthread_cond_wait() with a NULL in the mutex
field. Even a print statement before the call
to sched_yield() prevents

Then FreeBSD does have a problem. Please
I am working on a small threaded program
that uses aio_read(). In my first attempt
to run the program it killed my machine
instantly. The second time it only locked
it solid. I get no messages, warnings, or
errors.
I am certain that my program is not correct
