The SIGILL looked to me to be caused by a stack overflow, I was able to
run gdb on the firefox tool that was dumping core.

Not convinced that things are correct even now.

I just made the mistake of updating my userland without rebuilding the
kernel and it wouldn't boot, got a "bad syscall" error when init was
trying to run /etc/rc. It does boot with a new kernel.

Maybe this needs a version bump.
