April 1 OpenBSD source tree with April 1 flashboot snapshot on a 4801 
yield a panic as well.

Used the basic "build-release.sh" and "build-kernel.sh GENERIC-RD", except 
for a minor tweak to get rid of acpi and changed the serial console to 
9600.


OpenBSD 4.3-current (GENERIC-RD) #0: Tue Apr  1 20:03:48 MDT 2008

Will update everything to use the latest -current, but 
likely can't post an update for another 24 hrs or so...
