I see a lot of these on my SS5 running 1.5.3_RC1:

(gdb) target kcore netbsd.17.core

(gdb)

Is this a known problem? 

I'm not entirely sure this isn't a hardware problem, but the backtrace is
always the same. The machine doesn't have a keyboard or serial console
attached (on ttya); it has the console of another machine attached on ttyb
though.
