Hi Phillipp.  I couldn't find a quick fix so I recommend using the
    very first patch I sent you that changes the KASSERT that was
    causing the panic.  I am comitting a slight variation of that patch to
    current now and stable in two days.

    The KASSERT was being a little too conservative in regards to dirty
    bits that are 'beyond the file EOF'.  These get set when you dirty a
    mmap'd page, but only some of them get cleared when the filesystem
    buffer (containing the last fragment of a file) is synced, leaving
    m->dirty looking something like 0xFC.  I believe the extra page cleaning
    write that occurs (and has occured for the last year) is harmless
    enough for now.

                                                -Matt
