So what happens if monitor_traps fails and returns -1? Since this gets
treated as a boolean, we will return true here and just silently
swallow the problem and likely make the VM hang in a loop. I think it
would be appropriate to crash the vm here if we can't emulate and also
can't notify the listener.
