As it turns out, only 2.6-um kernels were affected, 2.4-um worked fine. This happened both in skas3 and skas0 modes. Jeff graciously took a look at some straces, and his comment was that "something broke page fault handling generically". The traces are here: http://www.theshore.net/~caker/uml/skas2.6.18-uml_trace.txt (skas3) http://www.theshore.net/~caker/uml/skas2.6.18-uml_trace_skas0.txt Reverting back to a skas3-v8.2 kernel fixed it.
