Comment (by bonefish):

 I'm unfamiliar with that code. I would probably examine the crash
 situation a bit more. If, as you say, all libroot functions seem to crash,
 something may have happened to the respective area or just, lower level,
 to the page table(s). I usually add a `panic()` in `vm_page_fault()` in
 such cases, so it is easier to examine and it is very unlikely that
 something else happened in between that might have changed the situation.

 Good luck hunting, anyway! :-)
