It can't; there is an effort underway to create a common libkvm, and it's
nearly realized in NetBSD-current.  We're not quite there, yet.

Sorry, I have no 1.2 or 1.2.1 systems... I can't help you here.

You might consider compiling a kernel with DDB and using that to figure
out what's happening.  It's not as nice as gdb but will get the job done.
The ddb(4) man page has details on the commands you can type at the db>
