0x100871c <Ldatafault_internal+196>: call 0x11b997c <data_access_fault>
It's inside the assembler part of the trap handler.

Sorry, forgot to mention: this is on sparc64.
So your theory is that the failing hardware causes an unexpected data
access fault and this makes the kernel die? The puzzling thing is that
I can reproducably boot netbsd.old in this situation and the kernel
never fails.
