Not quite, actually.  It's more stable this way, but will eventually
crash with a "trap: trap type 2" or "panic: rensa".  Now, when my VAX
starts speaking Swedish to me, I suspect that something really evil
must be going on.  :-)

I'm still trying to build a new userland, in the hope that things will
improve once I have binaries built with the new libraries, for the 4K
page size configuration.
