Hello.
Yesterday I upgraded my desktop PC, which had been up for almost a month
without a problem, to DragonFly_Stable. The build and install went fine,
and I kept it running until it panicked in the mid night probably during
or after daily cron job. This is a PentiumIV box running SMP kernel
(but no HyperThreading available). The box has two rootfs'es, and I'm
running older kernel/world now(built on Sept. 9).

Although this machine has a swap-backed partition as /tmp, the operation
which triggered the panic seems to be an lstat() on a file in /local,
where I keep ports stuff.
