Not likely.  
 
This is a wierd one.

The CS value says the trap is in 16-bit code, which usually means a  
driver.  The kernel failed to decode the module name, so we have to do it  
by hand.  Do you have Theseus installed.  If not, you need to do this.  
Then with the system up and running, use  
 
  System -> General System -> Drivers  
 
to list the loaded device drivers.  Scan down the Strategy column for the  
driver with 818 to the left of the colon.  This is the CS value assigned  
to the driver.

>EBP=00000000  FLG=00012202  
 
>REXXSOM.DLL 0001:000054ac  
 
We don't know if this triggered the trap in the driver or if the kernel is  
just showing us the ring3 process that was running when the trap occurs.   
It's probably the later.  It does say you were doing something with REXX  
when the trap occurred.   FWIW, EBP = 0 is generally a bad thing, but not  
always.  
 
On the chance that it matters check the sizes of the .ir files in  
\os2\etc.  The following is typical  
 
 7-22-96  19:33          66,058           0  REXX.IR  
 2-05-96  15:36         496,503           0  SOM.IR  
 8-09-96   2:48          60,855           0  WPDSERV.IR  
 8-09-96   2:25         282,701           0  WPSH.IR  
 
If any are really small, they are corrupted and should be restored from  
your install CD or a backup.
