I've added this  to the kernel

option          KDB
option          WITNESS
option          WITNESS_KDB
option          DDB


Now it can't even boot properly. It stops when it tries to configure 
networking:
uma_zalloc_arg: zone "256" with the following non-sleepable locks held:
exclusive rw ifnet_rw (ifnet_rw) r = 0 (0xffffffff80e31b20) locked @ 
/usr/src/sys/net/if.c:414

show allchains
<no result>

show alllocks
exclusive rw ifnet_rw (ifnet_rw) r = 0 (0xffffffff80e31b20) locked @ 
/usr/src/sys/net/if.c:414
exclusive sx ifnet_sx (ifnet_sx) r = 0 (0xffffffff80e31b40) locked @ 
/usr/src/sys/net/if.c:414

ps
<returns a lot of stuff. tell me to search something in particular>

call doadump
Cannot dump. Device not defined or unavailable

Hope it helps...
