Oh, another possibility is that vmxassist has been corrupted in memory. This
is particularly likely because, according to the objdump, the 'instruction'
that starts at d0800 is actually valid (it'd be an ADD of some sort).

So, within trap() you might want to read say 16 bytes starting at 0xd0800
and printf() them. So we can see if they match what objdump says should be
there.
