Gah, -ETOOLITTLESLEEP.   This is a bit strange:

   e:    4c 8d 74 24 08           lea    0x8(%rsp),%r14
...
  26:    49 83 c6 08              add    $0x8,%r14
  2a:*    4d 8b 7e f8              mov    -0x8(%r14),%r15        <--
trapping instruction

Which is an access to the stack above RSP by a few bytes.  But that
can't be an overflow, since it's *above* RSP.  Is something possibly
screwy with the mapping?

I might have a chance to debug this for real this evening.  Right now
I'm about to try to wrangle a sick kid through an airport.
