[OpenAFS] Re: FreeBSD port crashes

[mattbenjamin]

The freebsd LKM has been run in VMWare workstation 6, and a few other
environments that I know of, also, ported to FreeBSD 7.x AMD64, without
showing this result (but other issues in that port are known).


I'd be happy to look at the environment where this reproduces.
