Seen i said alredy, why repeating? I was pointing out about the problem,
not security issue.
Like FreeBSD user I want the patch for this code and I think is useful reporting
bug. It's an important part of the kernel so I didn't prepared a patch alredy,
I would like to know how core team will move.

Inside the kernel? i can define a syscall accepting 30 args and it could
send in panic freebsd kernel. I think it's a problem and a patch 'must'
occur.

nice but it doesn't solve the problem.
