:I don't see what this interrupt mask is. The closest I see is about an 
:intr_mux(...) at intr_mux+0x21

:What happens is that I get "syncing disks ... " Then every 5-10 seconds 
:a "CHKTOKEN loop 0" message, forever.

    You should only need to 'sysctl kern.sync_on_panic=0' for it to be
    able to get past the syncing disks code.
