So, I noticed I can make the system dump core if I set ddb.onpanic
to 1 and type "reboot 104". Calling cpu_reboot etc. does not work.
But the next problem is not being able to save the core. savegore
reports:
dumplo = 1209929216 (2363143 * 512)
savecore: kvm_read: invalid translation (invalid PTE)
savecore: warning: /netbsd version mismatch:

and 7
savecore: kvm_read: invalid translation (invalid PTE)
savecore: kvm_read: invalid translation (invalid PDE)
savecore: reboot after panic:
savecore: kvm_read: invalid translation (invalid PTE) (and _time_seconf is not defined also)
savecore: writing core to /var/crash/netbsd.58.core

Kernel + userland are from a few hours ago. What gives? The kernel is
not properly dumped? libkvm screwed? I know "7" might be appealing to
some, but it doesn't really look like a valid kernel version.
