This may be the same swap/MFS problem that can be seen on the i386
resulting in "pmap_changebit" crashed due to a zero PTE, when called
from the pageout daemon. See PR port-i386/4281, it was also noticed
by some other people recently.

I have been able to reproduce it once, using MFS too. Of course, when
I installed a new kernel with more debug info, it did not crash no
matter what I did..
