I believe ktrace should work fine. Try

# ktrace -di -t cnisuw -p <pid of bincimap-up>

When it's done, kdump can be run on the generated dump file. Just go

# kdump > dump

It doesn't give anything close to what strace can give, but from what I've
heard, it's a kernel tracing issue more than anything else. I hope ktrace
will show what's going on.
