No, I wan't using linux_kdump, thanks for the education.

Today I've installed linux_kdump from the package on
jp.current.freebsd.org, and now I get

      1207 vmware   CALL  linux_access(0xbfbff759,0x4)
      1207 vmware   NAMI  "/compat/linux/home/hunter/gwk/.Xauthority"
      1207 vmware   NAMI  "/home/hunter/gwk/.Xauthority"
      1207 vmware   RET   linux_access -1 errno 13 Permission denied

which looks a little more meaningful (no negative errno any more, and
a linux_* syscall is listed).

Still needs debugging, which I'll attempt to do when I get a little
time.
