It's just possible the hardware is faulty, all three pcs, pd6000
mini-itx, k6-400 and a 586-133, with exactly same panic?

I've also upgraded the mini-itx from 3.0 to 3.0.1, from source, which 
went through more smoothly than expected until first boot of new 
system when I had same panic but since it's mostly booted ok. Fourth 
pc, a p4-2000, does have some hardware problem causing hang at agp 
detection on some bootups, but hasn't shown the same panic, and 
ipfilter isn't enabled.
