So all the stack pages would have been faulted in well before the

stack.

Well. without locking the faulted in pages in memory we can't be sure 
they were not swapped back out. Unless I misunderstand what's 
involved in that ...


There was no swap enabled.

50000 frames * 36 bytes per frame == 1.8 MB

OK - swap is enabled in my case. That may explain the different fault 
rates.

But in any case, it looks like we can eliminate the bus error code. Same 
fault on both 030 and 040 with very different bus error handlers is 
highly unlikely.


There's no failure on '040. QEMU and Motorola '040 gave the same result.
