There's also an ancient discussion of this in the -hackers archives from May
1997 ("trap type 29 on P6").
Following that thread, it was believed that this was due to spurious
hardware problems. Some thought that trap 29 should be ignored, others
thought ignoring it may mask a real problem. It was noted that NetBSD
ignores this. Two patches were posted without response.
Does anyone have a current opinion on this? Is Dell producing buggy hardware
or should FreeBSD ignore this (or both)?
