I want to bring this up again. I only got one confirmation from a macppc
user, and one deny from a i386 user.

The procedure is to make a mfs partition 600M or larger by mounting it,
and then copying something to it that is definately going to overfill
it. I reproduced this again this morning.

Net7300# mkdir /mfs
Net7300# mount_mfs -s 600m ffs /mfs
Net7300# cp -R /usr/* /mfs
panic: kernel diagnostic assertion "pcb->pcb_kmapsr == 0" failed: file
"../../..
/../arch/powerpc/powerpc/trap.c", line 546

I can get this with -current GENERIC and GENERIC.MP. Are there a lot of
servers running /tmp as a large mfs?
