So, the box is back up.  I experienced a crash again while copying 42GB
from the UFS /build partition to another UFS partition.  Now the /build
partition is running HAMMER (latest HEAD from today) and I'm doing a
number of buildworld/buildkernel cycles to test the stability of the fs.
I'll report if something strange happens.
