I saw this in /var/log/messages
Oct 13 00:14:12 gzl kernel: EXDEV case 1 0xcfc4e320 scsi
Oct 13 00:14:12 gzl last message repeated 4 times
Oct 13 00:15:14 gzl kernel: EXDEV case 1 0xcfc4ee60 scsi
Oct 13 00:15:22 gzl last message repeated 9 times
Oct 13 00:17:59 gzl kernel: EXDEV case 1 0xcfc4ee60 scsi
Oct 13 00:22:53 gzl last message repeated 19 times

while I was playing with build breakage:
$ export MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=$HOME/obj
$ cd /sys/bus/cam/scsi
$ make -s obj && env ARCH=i386 make depend

Has this already been taken care of in HEAD?
