This is the generic illegal memory reference in the monitor for
TOPS-20.  Could be a reference to an unmapped page; a stray pointer, or
commonly a missing erjmp after a potentially unmapped reference.  There
were lots of patches for various cases, but there's probably not a 'last
bug'.

The additional data is the pagefail word, flags and pc.

The only way to track it down is to get a crash dump and dig in.  (You
might get a clue if you look at the PC with MDDT...)

You might also get a clue if you run spear on the error log.
