This panic is on a PowerMac 9600 with a 750GX accelerator, 1.5 gigs of 
memory, and 2 gigs of swap. It's been completely stable for months and 
months, but recently started getting extremely heavy use which includes 
250 running Apache processes with mod_php plus lots of MySQL work, so it's 
been going heavily into swap. I have no idea how far into swap it was when 
it paniced, but it was nearly 800 megs into swap in the morning.

Any ideas on what's allowing this to happen?

It's running netbsd-2, BTW.

Thanks,
