	I am adding kernel support for a Xylogics 753 controller. Booting
the new kernel results in the message "sys pt too small", and a panic reboot.
I have object license only, no OS source.

	Question: What causes a "sys pt too small" panic? i.e. What is a "pt"?
Can I enlarge it through a config change (without OS source license) ? Or, do
I have to remove some devices? Any particular kind of devices?

	The displayed string was tracked down to "/usr/sys/OBJ/machdep.o".

	Please respond via e-mail if possible. I will summarize if desired.
