arghh. Nah, /var ran full so the core is incomplete.

Indeed I am. The machine has got 3 AHA2940 controllers. Relevant
portions from dmesg:


ahc0 at pci0 dev 17 function 0
ahc0: interrupting at irq 10
ahc0: aic7860 Single Channel, SCSI Id=7, 3 SCBs
scsibus0 at ahc0 channel 0: 8 targets
...
ahc1 at pci0 dev 18 function 0
ahc1: interrupting at irq 11
ahc1: aic7860 Single Channel, SCSI Id=7, 3 SCBs
scsibus1 at ahc1 channel 0: 8 targets
...
ahc2 at pci0 dev 20 function 0
ahc2: interrupting at irq 9
ahc2: aic7860 Single Channel, SCSI Id=7, 3 SCBs
scsibus2 at ahc2 channel 0: 8 targets


BTW, the machine had been up for ~27 days when this happened. I've had
lots of problems getting this machine to run stably, but all have been
software related (various kernel parameters etc.). Except for a disk
going bad every now and then, the hardware hasn't given me many problems
(yet).
