System: NetBSD road-runner.mit.edu 1.3E NetBSD 1.3E (ROAD-RUNNER) #92: Sat Mar 7 00:51:36 EST 1998 nathanw@road-runner.mit.edu:/u1/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/ROAD-RUNNER i386


>Description:
	The gus driver has some #ifdef DDB code to decide whether to call 
panic() or Debugger(). This is wrong; the right thing for a driver to do is 
to call panic() and let panic() decide whether to drop into the debugger, a 
decision which depends on more than just DDB being defined (the value of 
db_onpanic, for example).
>How-To-Repeat:
	Try to figure out why your machines keep dropping into DDB when 
db_onpanic is set to 0, and grovel around the kernel sources.
	Stare at sys/dev/isa/gus.c and smack head.
>Fix:
	Apply this patch:
