	Hello NetBSD users.  I wrote yesterday concerning a troublesome Sparc
5 which kept dying due to a kernel data fault.  Several people wrote back
saying that they thought the problem was a memory error.  Thanks for the
pointer, I thought it was a cache error.
	Now, after having changed the CPU and the RAM, we're still seeing a
similar problem whereby the machine panics due to a kernel data fault.
However, we're also seeing a new type of panic on a 8GB filesystem which
was originally created under Solaris 2.5.  Could someone explain what the
following message means, and if there is a way to fix it short of newfsing
the entire disk?  Also, could this message, in some way, be causing the
kernel data faults as well?  What we see is a panic due to a kernel fault,
20 minutes of activity, a panic due to this ifree message, another 20
minutes of activity, another panic due to the ifree message, and so forth
with reboots every 20 minutes or so.  Whether or not the panic is caused by
ifree or a data fault seems to be more or less random.
	Any help anyone could offer would be much appreciated.  I'm really
stumped by this one and the situation is getting desparate.

	Below is a sample panic message of either type, followed by a df on
the affected filesystem, followed by the boot output.  (I upgraded the
kernel to 1.3 today, but that hasn't changed anything.)
