This is a TO (timeout) error from the Safari databus from an access to
an address that claimed to be mapped (ie, some device claims to have
implemented that physical address range) but for which data did not return
within the time expected. The fault address 0x000007f8.00610900 I think looks
like a device address rather than real cacheable memory, but I don't know
which device that would map to. Chances are that there's a bad or marginal
PCI card, I'd guess.

Incidentally Solaris 10 makes all this hugely more elegant.
