This is with 2.0. I'm not sure this is one of the things that are fixed
in 2.0.2 or even -current. I do get an awful number of crashes with 2.0,
I must say; they may be related to a filesystem with softdeps getting
full.

I diff a diff of /usr/src/sys but I didn't see any relevant file
system changes, but then again I might overlook something.

I was busy pkg_comp-ing and when I looked again my Alpha had rebooted.
I got a kernel crash dump and gdb told me this:

This GDB was configured as "alpha--netbsd"...(no debugging symbols found)...

It looks like it crashed while cleaning up the union mounts from
pkg_comp. For some reason I decided to use union mounts instead of null
mounts, probably because I had those compiled into my kernel.
