I have just looked up the program counter the panic occurs on and from
my limited Darwin kernel debugging experience it looks like a NULL
pointer reference in the routine kqueue_register which is part of the
BSD kqueue mechanism. Looking at the kqueue manual page this mechanism
is a likely candidate ot implement Java NIO, so I suspect a true kernel
bug triggered by the JVM. Should be reported to Apple as a bug.
