I filed a PR about this panic long ago (kern/5026).  Don't know if anyone
has looked into it though.  Various core dumps/kernels are available at
http://www.egr.unlv.edu/~greg/netbsd/ if anyone is interested.

I 1st encountered this problem with 1.3 on our heavily used nfs server.  In
the end I had to install a work-around as the machine was panicing multiple
times a day.  That fileserver is still running 1.3.2 at this point but I
intend to move it to 1.4.1 over the upcomming semester break.  I was hoping
that this problem would no longer be present...
