 If this is the case, then the lines
 
         if(*p->p_sysent->sv_trantrap != 0)
           i = (*p->p_sysent->sv_trantrap)(i, type);
 
 in trap.c should be moved up before the
 
         } else {
 #ifdef VM86
 kernel_trap:
 #endif
                 /* kernel trap */
 
 
 
 E.g. apply this patch:
 
 *** trap.c.old  Sat Apr 25 08:32:46 1998
 --- trap.c      Sat Apr 25 08:33:41 1998
 ***************
 *** 385,390 ****
 --- 385,394 ----
                         i = SIGILL;
                         break;
                 }
 + 
 +               if(*p->p_sysent->sv_trantrap != 0)
 +                 i = (*p->p_sysent->sv_trantrap)(i, type);
 + 
         } else {
   #ifdef VM86
   kernel_trap:
 ***************
 *** 544,552 ****
                 trap_fatal(&frame);
                 return;
         }

 -         if(*p->p_sysent->sv_trantrap != 0)
 -           i = (*p->p_sysent->sv_trantrap)(i, type);
   
         trapsignal(p, i, ucode);
   
 --- 548,553 ----
 
 
 This will avoid any strange problems with translating kernel traps by
 accident.
