Hi Dridi,

Thanks for the input. Looking over the panic I initially linked, the exact
version info was:

version = varnish-4.1.4 revision 4529ff7 ident =
Linux,2.6.32-642.6.2.el6.x86_64,x86_64,-junix,-smalloc,-smalloc,-hcritbit,epoll

I had already upgraded to 4.1.5 before mentioning the error on the list,
and it's been smooth since. It was just odd that there were no clock
changes, yet it panicked due to a stepping, so I figured I'd bring it up.
