[I'll assume that this panic never makes it to the klog]
You dont need a dump, just write the panic down (it's not that hard, takes some time but it's no biggie), then get the computer to produce a non- fatal panic that you can snarf out of the klog. Then fill it in like a template..
Then feed the results to ksymopps.
