db> trace
Debugger(c01dba5b) at Debugger+0x38
panic(c01c21fe,c012e00b2,c832a8c0,0,c012dfa4) at panic+0x74
rem1(0,40000000,280ef774,bfbfd940,a) at rem1
softclock(0,2f,2f,2f,a) at softclock+0xde
doreti_swi() at doreti_swi+0xf
Apparently this only happens when the CPU load is above normal, hence
two instances of the primes program had to be started.
