Note that you probably don't need to go anywhere near that high of a priority. (Especially if you have timesharing turned off.) Try turning it down and see how low you can go.

But I did have the weirdest thing happen yesterday. Kernel panic after
kernel panic whenever I accessed mach semaphores. The panic.log just said
w_queue deadlock and some mumbo jumbo.
I did not think I should be able to do this from user space. It went the
same way it came. I have no clue what happened, everything works now. If
anyone at Apple wants to look into it, I have my panic.log handy.

If you get a kernel panic, file a bug. There is *never* any question about this. Of course it's better to have a reproducible test case, but any information is better than none.

For what it's worth, I've never gotten a panic using Mach semaphores, but I haven't exercised them very hard.
