>Environment:

	Dual PII-300 SMP 256Mb RAM 256Mb swap

>Description:

	The "doscmd" program generates endless kernel messages:

		kernel trap 25 with interrupts disabled 

	Recent fixes to the trap code cause this message to be generated
	for all programs that are purpotedly doing "bad" things.

	A quick hack to /sys/i386/i386/trap.c eliminates this message,
	but I've been told that hacking this is a bad idea and that
	doscmd really needs to be fixed.

	The messages rapidly fill up the dmesg buffer so any other
	errors may be missed or flushed out.


>How-To-Repeat:

	Simply run "doscmd -b -x" and watch the messages in xconsole.

>Fix:

	No idea.  I am not familiar with the intricacies of DOS, doscmd,
	VM86, and how everthing interacts with the FreeBSD kernel.
