The HOT LINE just called to say that the bug that caused
exp(any_number_but 0.0) to dump core was in the "floating point driver"
in the SV/386 R3.2.2 kernel, and that a patch would be mailed. They also
said that the bug was fixed in 3.2.3 but as I don't have a maintenance
contract for 3.2.2, I wasn't notified.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help.
