1.3.15 panic in tcp_rcv

I experienced a panic in 1.3.15 recently. I had slip w/ shlc active at the
time, but I wasn't generating any net traffic in particular at that point.
I had seen a

rift kernel: ncftp trying to free kernel page-directory: not good

earlier in the day, but I didn't have slip active at that time.
Coincidentally, I had just run "readprofile", and I noticed that there
were 7 _free_page_table's and 23 _clear_page_table's, after being up
for about 1 hour. Seemed odd to me.

GCC 2.5.8, 1.3.15 kernel. Panic copied by hand, but I double-checked the EIP.
