I tried to build Perl again and this time got a different crash.

uvm_fault(0xc02c2ba0, 0xc8aaa000, 0, 1) -> 1
kernel: page fault trap, code = 0

This is the first time I've seen NetBSD 1.5 crashing like this, I suspect
the hardware.  Do these error messages contain any hints about which
hardware components I should suspect?  My first guess would be the memory,
however this PC has run several other operating systems without crashing.
