It seems to be related to reading past 4GB on the disk.  Try playing a
DVD that is single layer (these are usually double sided) and it
*probably* won't crash.  Soren fixed this problem in -current a while
back, but it hasn't been MFC'd yet.  I think that some harrasment to
sos@ and asmodai@ is in order }:-)

P.S. Actually, the above test is more likely to succeed if you use a
program like vlc or xine that doesn't have the bastard behaviour of
cracking all the CSS keys up front.
