Don't know if this is related, but just compiled the newest kernel
as of about 5PM this afternoon, and on boot up, it fails right after
the "Copyright (c)..." line.

Fatal trap 1: privileged instruction fault while in kernel mode
instruction pointer:	0x8:0xf019c5ec
code segment:		base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
			DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
processor eflags:	resume, IOPL = 0;
current process:	0 ()
interrupt mask:		net tty bio
kernel: type 1 trap, code=0
Stopped at	0xf019c5ec:	invlpg	0(%eax)

And a trace comes up with a bunch of lines starting with (null)
and that is it...

Oh...and its a 386 CPU
