	The only software instructions which explicitly cause supervisor traps
appear to be SVC, BPT, and FLAG. Since these traps are already used for
something else either in the OS, debugger, or compiler, I need to find a way
to generate a trap to one on the unused or less innocuous trap numbers.
Anyone know how?
