It is probably the problem. I think the problem happens when a process exit(),
and thus his pages need to be freed, but one of the needed page is in swap.
This can also happens at reboot, when the processes are killed.

I sended another PR, because it appears that the panic doesn't happen
only at reboot, but can also happen in normal operation (2-3 days on
my box which is not heavily loaded, but has little RAM), which is a more
serious problem. This should be fixed for 1.3 (No, I don't have time nor
knowledges to fix it myself:), or peoples using NetBSD as mail, ftp or http 
production servers will have to stay with 1.2.1, unless they have tons of RAM
(This box had > 70 days utimes under 1.2).
