I'm running FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE on a 486/33 box with a Buslogic
SCSI controller.  It was running fine for a couple of weeks after
setting it up, but now, three times in the past 24 hours, it's
crashed with the following message:

panic : ufs_lock: recursive lock not expected pid: xxx

where "xxx" is some pid.  I don't know what process was running 
to cause this.  The system reboots after the message comes up.  Any
ideas?  Thanks.
