Out of curiosity, is anything regarding the exhaustion of mb_map
being logged to /var/log/messages ? If not, chances are that this is not
directly related to an mbuf exhaustion -- the panic, that is, because if
mb_map hasn't even been exhausted, then you still potentially have space
to allocate from (this is the way it presently works) and the panic is
unlikely to be related to an mbuf pointer being NULL and mis-treated.
