Kynan - thank you very much for sharing the name, writing mechanism, 
location and structure of the panic log.  This was very helpful to 
me, to understand a bit more about how OS X 'works'.  Fortunately, I 
have no current kernel panic issues, but if ever, I would now have a 
systematic approach to analysing them.  Great!
