	The system panics at seemingly random times and requires

>How-To-Repeat:

	
	Contrary to popular belief, this panic has a cause. I discovered
	that failed login attempts at the console that leave a character
	at the Login: prompt without a carriage return will cause the
	panic. For instance, a child comes by and types "kkwl" at the
	console, then leaves. The system will eventually panic and require
	rebooting. This does not seem to happen if the carriage return
	is pressed last.

 I'm glad you can reproduce the problem. How about helping us
 reproduce it too? Can you gives the results of mount, kldstat, dmesg
 and your kernel configuration file? Do you have any estimate on how
 long it takes to panic? Is your box doing anything else in
 background? Is it connected to the network?
