 Now this is funny...
 
 I updated the machine to -current and it survived three nightly runs.
 But: now I can make it lock up on demand by running:
 
 	cd /usr/tests/bin/ps
 	atf-run | atf-report
 
 and it hangs here:
 
 Tests root: /usr/tests/bin/ps
 
 t_ps (1/1): 8 test cases
     default_columns: [0.478048s] Passed.
     duplicate_column: [0.071451s] Passed.
     minus_O: 
 
 
 No break into ddb, does not answer pings.
 
 The other shark (with more memory) runs the test just fine:
 
 Tests root: /usr/tests/bin/ps
 
 t_ps (1/1): 8 test cases
     default_columns: [17.447618s] Passed.
     duplicate_column: [3.776681s] Passed.

     override_heading_some_null: [7.134459s] Passed.

 Summary for 1 test programs:
     8 passed test cases.
     0 failed test cases.
     0 expected failed test cases.
     0 skipped test cases.
 
 
 While updating I noticed that besides the memory installed, another difference
 is the very slow root disk.
