This is a current system running GENERIC-MP

christine: {1} uname -a
NetBSD christine.energyhq.tk 1.6K NetBSD 1.6K (GENERIC.MP) #0: Tue Nov  5 20:09:44 CET 2002     root@christine.energyhq.tk:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC.MP i386

Now, if do something as simple as this:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	printf("Hello, crash\n");
}

Then: env CFLAGS="-pg -ax" make hello
then: ./hello 
bang!

The kernel freezes. On a 1.6-RELEASE system it doesn't happen.

Any ideas why is this happenning? I can't seem to get a coredump, the system freezes solid.

Cheers,
