[OpenIndiana-discuss] "bad mutex" crash?

I've got a virtualized OI151a7 running under ESXi 5.1.  A small root pool VM
disk, and two SATA disks passed as RDMs.  I wanted to back it up to amazon
glacier, so I removed the two RDMs before doing the backup.  The problem
happened when I was shutting down the OI VM to be able to edit the config
for it.  I clicked on the shutdown VM option in the vsphere menu for the VM
and almost instantly saw the panic.  I believe ESXi does this kind of stuff
under the sheets using the vmware tools to simulate an ACPI shutdown.  I do
have a crash dump if anyone wants to look at it.  The fmdump info:
