[parisc-linux] What's a "Trace/breakpoint trap" and why does he crash my system?

[thunder7@xs4all.nl]

Well, I can boot 2.4.9-pa13 just fine on my C200, but trying to compile
a kernel under that version never works, typing

make proper

in the source directory doesn't produce any output but

Trace/breakpoint error

after one second or so.

I realize this is a worthless bug-report, but where does that message
come from? The text is nowhere in the kernel-sources, so it must be
something else.

Greetings,
Jurriaan
