Hyperthreading panic

I built my own ISO and it's not having this problem, though two others did,
so I'm guessing this isn't a bug, but rather an issue with those two
specific ISO's.

Getting a panic on hyperthreading on VMware 4.5.1 (latest stable build)
booting from live CD using GeekGod's ISO from http://www.livebsd.com/dfly/.

Could be a VMware bug, but FreeBSD 4.x and 5.x don't do the same, so I'm
guessing that's not the case.  (can try it on the host machine if that'd be
helpful)

Hit "n" at the panic, and it goes happily along working fine, albeit minus
HT.

Host machine is a dual Xeon 2.66 GHz + HT, VMware uses one proc + HT.

Let me know if I can provide any more info or anything.

Thanks,
Chris
