 This looks like it might fix my issue:
 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=177895
 
 Two newbie questions (links to a FAQ or general admonishment for not
 knowing what I'm doing welcome):
 
 1. How do I apply this patch on a 9.1-RELEASE-p3 system for testing?
 I'll report back my findings.
 
 2. If the patch does the trick, when will it get bundled into the next
 RELEASE version?  Will it come out with the next patch level or does
 the minor version number need to increment first?
 
 Thanks!
