Environment: 

        FreeBSD 2.2-RELEASE cvsup'd and made world after 2.2-BETA release.

Description: 

	/usr/sbin/watch when ran asks for device to snoop. Hitting return at 
this prompt causes the machine to page fault and reboot.

How-To-Repeat: 

        Run /usr/sbin/watch as root then hit return at the device prompt. This 
should then page fault and reboot your system.

Fix: 
	
	workaround: pass device on command line.
