>Description:
Running the Mathematica 2.2 SunOS binary on a Sun SPARC 4C IPC causes
a kernel panic with the message
panic: amap_lookups: offset out of range
A backtrace on the kernel crash dump gives
(gdb) target kcore /var/crash/netbsd.3.core
panic: amap_lookups: offset out of range
#0 mi_switch () at ../../../../kern/kern_synch.c:633
633 cpu_switch(p);
(gdb) bt
#0 mi_switch () at ../../../../kern/kern_synch.c:633
#1 0xf002f340 in tsleep (ident=0x0, priority=4, wmesg=0xf00ce578 "scheduler",
timo=0) at ../../../../kern/kern_synch.c:371
#2 0xf00ce718 in uvm_scheduler () at ../../../../uvm/uvm_glue.c:436
#3 0xf001f6e4 in main () at ../../../../kern/init_main.c:420
This was with a custom kernel compiled for this machine, but it also
happens with the generic kernel in the 1.4.2 distribution, and with
the generic 1.4.1 kernel.
>How-To-Repeat:
Running this binary reproduces the panic every time.

None known to me
