	Bad news. Last night, this server panics twice when idle with :

Feb 23 07:58:27 legendre /netbsd: cpu0: data fault: pc=f000934c 
rpc=103b435e0 addr=1ffee8000
Feb 23 07:58:27 legendre /netbsd: Skipping crash dump on recursive panic
Feb 23 07:58:27 legendre /netbsd: panic: kernel fault
Feb 23 07:58:27 legendre /netbsd: cpu0: Begin traceback...
Feb 23 07:58:27 legendre /netbsd: cpu0: End traceback...
Feb 23 07:58:27 legendre /netbsd: cpu1: shutting down
Feb 23 07:58:27 legendre /netbsd: cpu0: rebooting

	Next saturday, I will try to remove all but quad-hme PCI adapters.
