  Possibly, but they are also the result of a process accessing memory it
should not (eg. program error).  With bad hardware, signal 11s occur,
because pointers get corrupted by the hardware, resulting in the program
accidently accessing memory it should not.

  In this case, jdk1.1.8 is such an old build, that it probably a library
incompatiblity problem between FreeBSD 3 and 4.  Compatibility libraries
are available, but I don't know how well they are tested.  And the
underlying kernel has changed significantly too.  It would probably work
if it was rebuilt on a FreeBSD 4.x system.
