FreeBSD dinolt1 4.6-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 4.6-PRERELEASE #5: Sat May  4 10:45:11 PDT 2002     root@dinolt1:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DINOLT1  i386   
>Description:
The port build up to through the creation of the "unixport/saved_gcl" file. This file is a "dumped" (a la emacs) version of the program with other objects included. The saved_gcl file raises a Signal 11 when it tries to execute. 

It appears that the dumping process is not creating a reasonable executable. It has the right magic number and an "nm" of the file seems to produce reasonable output. There appears to be a problem with initialization  (as seen from gdb).
>How-To-Repeat:
 Try to build the port on an I386 FreeBSD 2.6 PRERELEASE. If memory served this also failed on earlier versions of FreeBSD.
