Much as I would love to trust the contents of ub there, I suspect they
can't be trusted. Could you print the contents of *fp in kern_fstat() in
both of those stacks? I'd particularly like to know the value of
fp->f_type, and then depending on the type, possibly the contents of
*(struct vnode *)fp->f_vnode for DTYPE_VNODE/TYPE_FIFO or *(struct socket
*)fp->f_data in the case of DTYPE_SOCKET.
Can you tell me how to get at *fp given that the stack trace shows fstat()
and not kern_fstat()? Sorry if I'm being dumb but I don't know how to step
into the kern_fstat() call from fstat().
It could be that the stack is hosed losing the frame, or maybe it's inlined
(more likely the former I think, as kern_fstat() is a symbol used elsewhere in
the kernel). The best bet may be to use the file descriptor number (uap->fd)
to pull the struct file reference out of the process. Something on the order
of (td->td_proc->p_fd->fd_ofiles[fd]) should return the right struct file *.
How reproduceable is this?

That must be wonderful! I don't understand it at all.
