Another strange argument.  How about we turn it around.

The AI has copied all the code into it's knowledge.  It isn't the
best at rewriting it to call OpenBSD functions.  That is why multiple
kernels had to be compiled, to produce traces, which were given to
the AI.  The AI then started considering how these other functions
worked as being crucial towards producing something which mixed things
together.

Meanwhile, the human rebooted the machine and showed it crash dumps.
I've been training my cat to do the same.
