* Move the user stack from VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS to a place below the 32bit
boundary (needed to support 32bit OSF programs). This should also save
one pagetable per process.
* Add cvtqlsv to the set of instructions handled by the floating point
software completion code.
* Disable all floating point exceptions by default.
* A minor change to execve to allow the OSF1 image activator to support
dynamic loading.
There's something that's been bugging me for a while, so I decided to fix it.
FreeBSD now will DTRT WRT DDB and DDB_UNATTENDED (!debugger_on_panic), at least
in my opinion. The behavior change is such that:
1. Nothing changes when debugger_on_panic != 0.
2. When DDB_UNATTENDED (!debugger_on_panic), if a panic occurs, the
machine will reboot. Also, if a trap occurs, the machine will
panic and reboot, unlike how it broke to DDB before. HOWEVER,
a trap inside DDB will not cause a panic, allowing full use
of DDB without having to worry about the machine being stuck
at a DDB prompt if something goes wrong during the day.
Patches for this behavior follow my signature, and it would
be a boon to anyone (like me) who uses DDB_UNATTENDED, but
actually wants the machine to panic on a trap (otherwise,
what's the use, if the machine causes a fatal trap rather than
a true panic, of debugger_on_panic?). The changes cause no
adverse behavior, but do involve two symbols becoming global

with snprintf(); for others cases, added terminating NUL bytes where
appropriate, replaced constants like "16" with sizeof(), etc.
These changes include several bug fixes, but most changes are for
maintainability's sake. Any instance where it wasn't "immediately
obvious" that a buffer overflow could not occur was made safer.

problem is worked around by using an interrupt gate for the page
fault handler. This code was originally made for NetBSD/pc98 by
Naofumi Honda <honda@kururu.math.sci.hokudai.ac.jp> and has already
been in PC98 tree. Because of this bug, trap_fatal cannot show
correct page fault address if %cr2 is obtained in this function.
Therefore, trap_fatal uses the value from trap() function.
