I saw the same thing with a NetBSD ELF kernel. I'd love to have it
explained.

I ran into something similar with tcsh, though the free didn't cause a
crash. I think/bet the problem's that bash is defining its own malloc. Try
either configuring it to use NetBSD's malloc, or compiling it staticly (so
everything will use its malloc).
