I guess something is using more ressources than it used to.
MAX_KMAPENT is defined in uvm/uvm_map.h. It's 50 + (2 * NPROC), NPROC
being kern.maxproc I guess.
Just rebuild a kernel with e.g.
options MAX_KMAPENT=2000
You can also bump maxusers in your kernel config file. It will change NPROC,
and thus MAX_KMAPENT.
