Alight, seems as though due to lack of sleep, and perhaps a bit of sour grapes at being brushed off by openbsd over a likely unrelated bug, I have managed to combine two unrelated problems. It seems openbsd will reboot under the circumstances described with any large ping. I have no evidence netbsd exhibits the same behaviour. It was while trying to reproduce a panic caused by the fragment in the origional post that I stumbled onto the second reboot. The bug still stands, but it's just that, a bug. Not an exploit. If anyone wants code that reproduces it under net/openbsd feel free to mail me with info on where to send it. (be polite:)
