    I'm trying to do a "make buildworld" on my system:

     FreeBSD PECTOPAH.shenton.org 5.1-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #2: Tue
     Jul 1 19:48:37 EDT 2003
     chris@PECTOPAH.shenton.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/PECTOPAH i386

    And it keeps dying at various points early in the build. It's a
    different location each time, some times as soon as 12 seconds, some
    as long as 100 seconds. Most of the time it's a Signal 11, e.g.:

      rm -f .depend GPATH GRTAGS GSYMS GTAGS
      ===> games/pom
      *** Signal 11

    But sometimes it complains about Illegal instruction:

      ===> rescue/rescue/client
      rm -f dhclient clparse.o dhclient.o dhclient.conf.5.gz dhclient.leases.5.gz dhclient.8.gz dhclient-sc\
      ript.8.gz dhclient.conf.5.cat.gz dhclient.leases.5.cat.gz dhclient.8.cat.gz dhclient-script.8.cat.gz
      Illegal instruction (core dumped)
      *** Error code 132

    This smells like a hardware problem to me. Oddly, this is the first
    off-the-shelf box I've bought in years. A Dell 600sc with CERC RAID
    controller, 256MB DELL RAM. To this, I added 512MB Crucial RAM.

    I've seen this before in heavy builds (mozilla, openoffice, x11) but
    now it's really buggin' me. I'm kinda stuck if I can't make world.

    Suggestions? If you think it's marginal HW, do you have any
    suggestions on how to test and determine the culprit?

    Thanks.
