I can't get past init if -n > 1.  This is with today's HEAD.  Here's the
panic:

start_init: trying /sbin/init


Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
mp_lock = 00000003; cpuid = 3
fault virtual address   = 0x0
fault code              = supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer     = 0x1f:0x0
stack pointer           = 0x10:0x5e89c8f0
frame pointer           = 0x10:0x0
processor eflags        = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
current process         = 2 (sh)
current thread          = pri 6 
 <- SMP: XXX
kernel: type 12 trap, code=4

I either get this or a bus error.  I can't get anything useful from
gdb either.
