This is in the FAQ, but it's almost certainly a hardware failure. A
buildworld is a truly excellent test of hardware and signal 11 is most
often a memory failure. A buildworld will use memory and CPU very
heavily and raise temperatures beyond almost any "normal" use.

Try another buildworld and see if it dies in exactly the same place
each time. If it does not, you should look closely at the hardware. Is
the getting proper cooling? Do you have more than one memory card? If so,
try removing one at a time or swapping them around.
