	Just repeated it. It was caused by pine truncating a mailbox to
	zero - second panic was:

lfs_truncate: segment 5116 short by 8192
panic: lfs_truncate: negative bytes

	While truncating a different mailbox (in this case not to empty,
	though its possible pine may be be zeroing then extending,
	though hopefully unlikely) the following kernel messages were
	output:

lfs_writeinode: last inode addr in current pseg (ino 4712 daddr 0x5029d6) ndupino=1
lfs_writeinode: last inode addr in current pseg (ino 4711 daddr 0x502a55) ndupino=1

	No panic (or apparent problems) with the second mailbox.
