Gregs answer describes how to call the panic handler, in effect. This is easy, when you have sufficient privileges. Note also that not all features of dtrace work in a non-global zone, depending mostly what kind of privilege level the dtrace script would need. Specifically, IIRC dtrace_kernel is never granted inside a non-global zone, and that's the privilege you need to call panic().
