:It is full build of HEAD from June 27th.
:Updated source & rebuild today, but it didn't change panic.
:I am going to make a virgin checkout & full build tomorrow; to triple check ;-)
:
:No problem with reboot, halt, or shutdown -o from serial console.
:No problem running shutdown -p from ssh login.
:Panic is seen every time shutdown without -o is used on serial console.

    I'm going to need a kernel core dump.  If I do
    'shutdown -h how "shutting down"' on a serial console on my test box it
    shuts down ok.

    I will note that there are definitely some shutdown issues in HEAD
    at the moment.  These issues are primarily related to assertions that
    have been added to validate the shutdown code (meaning that the problems
    have always existed, but now we actually detect them).

    I really need core dumps to track them all down.
