Thanks.


Btw. the  2009-04-17 putback for 6752891 "p_lock gets hot
with mysql (syslwp_park)" has changed the proc structure,
and is another candidate for breaking the closed source
klmmod kernel module.

For now I'm working around the problem with a custom
change to sys/proc.h and sys/thread.h; I moved the
new structure members to the end of the ktread / proc
structure, so that klmmod can continue to use the old
compiled in structure offsets...    Seems to work; no 
more panics ...
