Which latest build is that?

When you say 'something dealing with the gdt', do you mean that
DDB reports and address of 'gdt_desc+blah' or something like that?
In that case you may have jumped to a NULL function pointer.

FWIW, I have a dual Athlon Tyan board, and the only problem I have
with it is a memory corruption problem when I start X, which
I still have not been able to track down.

Not using X, I can safely run builds with -j4 while hammering at it
as an NFS server.
