        System:  Fresh full install

>Description:

        /stand/sysinstall, imake and others exit on signal 10 (Bus error).
        I just upgraded to a fresh install of the new system and istalled a 
        second Adaptec SCSI crontroller.  I had been upgrading the kernel
        regularly, newest about two weeks old.  No programs ever gave me 
        any problems like this.  I tried to copy an older imake ad run that
        one instead, and it worked fine.  I have not seen any other programs
        which have this problem yet, but the install is only 12 hour old.

>How-To-Repeat:

        Running sysinstall or imake (eg compile anything, not just running it)
