Panic: k_trap; unable to freeze processor

I shutdown my sco 5.0.7 machine about a month and a half ago and upon bringing it back up got the following kernel panic:

Panic: k_trap - Kernel mode trap type0x0000000E
Unable to freeze processor 2, proceeding....
Cannot dump ?????? pages (I don't remember how many pages it was)
Dump not completed
Safe to power off
or
Press any key to reboot

After pressing enter to reboot the system comes up fine. I had to shutdown again last week and got the same kernel panic but was able to bring the system up by rebooting after the panic.

I'm only getting the panic when I shut it down and boot it back up and after rebooting from the panic everything is fine. The first time it happened I thought it was a fluke but now that it has happened a second time I am worried. Any ideas??

I do have an IRQ conflict but its been there for the past two years and this problem began recently.

freezestr(9F)						   Kernel Functions for Drivers 					     freezestr(9F)

NAME
freezestr, unfreezestr - freeze, thaw the state of a stream SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/stream.h> #include <sys/ddi.h> void freezestr(queue_t *q); void unfreezestr(queue_t *q); INTERFACE LEVEL
Architecture independent level 1 (DDI/DKI). PARAMETERS
q Pointer to the message queue to freeze/unfreeze. DESCRIPTION
freezestr() freezes the state of the entire stream containing the queue pair q. A frozen stream blocks any thread attempting to enter any open, close, put or service routine belonging to any queue instance in the stream, and blocks any thread currently within the stream if it attempts to put messages onto or take messages off of any queue within the stream (with the sole exception of the caller). Threads blocked by this mechanism remain so until the stream is thawed by a call to unfreezestr(). Drivers and modules must freeze the stream before manipulating the queues directly (as opposed to manipulating them through programmatic interfaces such as getq(9F), putq(9F), putbq(9F), etc.) CONTEXT
These routines may be called from any stream open, close, put or service routine as well as interrupt handlers, callouts and call-backs. SEE ALSO
Writing Device Drivers STREAMS Programming Guide NOTES
The freezestr() and unfreezestr() functions can have a serious impact on system performance. Their use should be very limited. In most cases, there is no need to use freezestr() and there are usually better ways to accomplish what you need to do than by freezing the stream. Calling freezestr() to freeze a stream that is already frozen by the caller will result in a single-party deadlock. The caller of unfreezestr() must be the thread who called freezestr(). STREAMS utility functions such as getq(9F), putq(9F), putbq(9F), and so forth, should not be called by the caller of freezestr() while the stream is still frozen, as they indirectly freeze the stream to ensure atomicity of queue manipulation.
