Trap types

I am running SCO Xenix 2.3.2 on a 286 box and I've been receiving
the following message every few days.

Trap 000D in system
ax=0040 bx=F9C6 cx=0000 dx=0110 si=0018 di=03D4
bp=0392 fl=0286 uds=0018 es=0110
pc=0060:3B93 ksp=0378
prtrap: PANIC: general protection trap

The register dump varies somewhat each time.  SCO support simply says it's
a hardware problem.  What I would like to know is what exactly do the different
trap types mean.  If anyone has a list of the trap types and what they mean
it would be very helpful.  Any additional input on this particular error
message would also be appreciated.

Thanks.
