1.5.2 userland, GENERIC kernel with "options I686_CPU" commented out
>Description:
Trying to list a directory on an ext2fs filesystem with a recent kernel
causes the kernel to panic.
The ddb backtrace is (copied from screen to paper so it may contain
subtle errors):

As I happened to have a two days older kernel which worked, I've played a
bit with different revisions and the problem goes away if I do a
`cvs update -d -p -D "2001/11/08 03:00 GMT" .` in src/sys/ufs/ufs.
>How-To-Repeat:
Update config, compile a kernel from 1.5.2 with details as found in
"Environment" and reboot. Mount an ext2fs filesystem (created with linux
and works perfectly fine under NetBSD 1.5.2) at /usr/src , type
`ls /usr/src/src<Enter>` (it doesn't matter whether the directory entry
exists or not).
