I might have had a similair problem. haven't looked into it any deeper yet, but
it looks like UDP NFS mounts with 16384 make the NFS server's kernel crash
hard. after i found a workaround, i didn't have chance to trace this bug.

My situation was that i was copying a bunch of stuff from a linux machine,
which had options for nfs mounts set to 16384 byte blocks.  When i set them to
8192, FreeBSD didn't crash any more.


hope this helps...
