i assume you mean 9vx is scribbling on memory
it shouldn't, not that there is a hardware bug.

when i've seen this in plan 9, i haven't ever found
it to be a wild pointer.  it's always been.

- stack > 4k,
- a missing waserror()/poperror() around a sleep,
- locking bugs.

while it certainly could be a wild poointer, it doesn't
smell like that to me.

where (file/line) is the double sleep occuring?  that
could be a clue.  remember addresses from acid aren't
much help unless one has the exact same binary.
