Before I get to the good stuff, I'll note that:
* I'm no longer running a VIMAGE kernel, so that possible source of
confusion should be absent.
* The hardware in question (a miniPCI device in my laptop) has been
working under stable/7 and stable/8 (so I believe that there should be
nothing so wrong with the hardware that it should cause a panic).
* I tend to see a lot of messages: iwi0: firmware error -- especially
running CURRENT. I have seen a few of them while running stable/7, as
well (but no panics under stable/*).
* An ath(4) PCcard works fine (now that I'm not running VIMAGE).
* uname reports:
FreeBSD g1-219.catwhisker.org. 9.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #80 r210841: Wed

(though sources were actually updated to r210855 just prior to this
norning's build).
I've attached a opy of the core.txt file; here's the backtrace:
