Here is a kernel compile with `make -j` which would usually kill the system.

Of course there is at least one BUG! Attempt to execute vmlinux, er...
dismount your disks first. The result will be:
general protection: 0000
CPU: 0
EIP: 0010:[<c0109916>]
EFLAGS: 00010282
etc..
Data segment was at 002b and extra segment the same (user-space).
I think the appropriate action is supposed to be a core-dump. This is
a user task that did a bad thing. Instead, the machine halts.
Cheers,
Dick Johnson
