I /think/ the reason for this is because debug_traps_init() replaces the
BRK vector, so if that runs before the break hooks have been registered
for e.g. BUG() then BUG() won't work during that window. Hmm, so dropping
early_brk64 is problematic after all. Damn.
Is trap_init() early enough for you? If so, we could call debug_traps_init()
from traps_init() after registering the break hooks.
