Logic is that neither can have got to i586_bc1, since they only copy 8
bytes and i586_bc1 is only used for >= 1024 bytes :-).

The frame pointer isn't set up for the functions in support.s, so the
backtrace probably skips one function: nfs_writerpc() called something
that called bcopy().
Do you use nfsv3? v2 obviously won't work properly with files
larger than 2GB or 4GB. E.g., for v2, nfs_writerpc() uses
txdr_unsigned(uiop->uio_offset) and throws away the high 32 bits of
the offset :-(.
