"Illegal instruction" sounds like the program tries to use a CPU-instruction
which isn't supported by the processor. An instruction which is available on
some Intel CPU's but not on AMD CPU's. Does the same program run flawlessly
if you run an x86 FreeBSD instead of the amd64 FreeBSD on this machine?

Bye,
Alexander.
