here's what I get:
11703 1 ktrace EMUL "netbsd"
11703 1 ktrace RET ktrace 0
11703 1 ktrace CALL execve(0xbf7ffc27,0xbf7feb68,0xbf7feb70)
11703 1 ktrace NAMI "./architextIndex"
11703 1 architextIndex EMUL "netbsd"
11703 1 architextIndex RET syscall JUSTRETURN
11703 1 architextIndex PSIG SIGSEGV SIG_DFL: code=SEGV_ACCERR,
addr=0xacb94, trap=4)
11703 1 architextIndex NAMI "architextIndex.core"
