Hard to tell. Nothing specific comes to mind.
We do see lines like these:

BUG: unable to handle kernel [ 110.NUM] device gre0 entered promiscuous mode
BUG:--------[ cut here ]------------

and frequently it's also required to look deep inside of crash message
to understand what they really mean. Hard to tell how random pr_cont's
contribute to the problem. We now throw away everything that looks any
corrupted right away.
I guess the main requirement is that the crash report itself does not
use pr_cont and provided we have task/cpu context we can separate the
crash report lines from everything else (assuming that random
pr_cont's on other CPUs won't glue to the report lines).
