The binary created by this is not a NetBSD binary - one of the emulations
compiled into your kernel pick it up and try to execute it. You need a
note section marking the code as native NetBSD binary to get it executed
as you intend.

On a custom -current kernel (with most emulations removed) I get:

./test_triv: Exec format error. Wrong Architecture.

The kernel crash should be fixed, nevertheless (or maybe the fix pulled
up)
