[OpenAFS-port-darwin] Different kernel panic that's probably
AFS-related

Sadly for reasons unrelated to OpenAFS (including when it's neither
running nor loaded) my laptop seems to have become unreliable in the last
72 hours, I've a gotten a dozen hard hangs accompanied several times by
3 beeps (and 3 blinks) when I try to power it back on after powering it
off; I suspect the motherboard but of course sending it in for repairs
means being without a laptop for multiple days, which is basically not
workable now. So I'm doing all the testing on my desktop, which I will be
away from starting tomorrow.
But finally I can crash it, so at least I made progress.

find / -type f -xdev takes a while; I had to ^C it before a rename then
triggered the bug, after it'd run for a while.
