I guess it should.  You can fill a PR about it, if you want.

That's rather strange, but just saying you get a panic is not very useful.
You will have to be more specific, or the problem you're having is likely
to stay.  Next time you get into ddb, write down the panic message, and
look at the stack trace ('trace' or 'bt' commands) to see where it breaks.
Then the problem will have a chance to be fixed.
