Asus & Dell x86 systems (AMD Athlon & Intel P-something) / NetBSD
>Description:
When KGDB is enabled and DDB disabled, kernel boots up to
a point where it waits for the remote system to connect.
Once the remote system attempts to connect, it faults with:
kgdb: caught trap 0x6 at ...
Where ... is in the cn_check_magic macro in com_common_getc()
or com_common_putc().

See above.

Unknown. Filing so it doesn't get lost.
