Is it just coincidence or is something going on ? You've compiled for a different processor family than you're running on, and the program is dying when it hits an instruction that your processor does not have (signal 4 == SIGILL). E.g., you built with CPUTYPE=i686 or k7 and you're running on something older. -- Chris BeHanna http://www.pennasoft.com Principal Consultant PennaSoft Corporation chris@pennasoft.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
