One thing that seems to have changed is the GENERIC SCSI driver.  After 
installing your last snapshot I noticed the system panics when I do a 
"shutdown -r now".  I've never had that problem before on this system.  
Tried doing a test with a lot of disk I/O to see if the system crashes 
under load but it doesn't; just while shutting down.
