That usually means the application is trying to execute an instruction 
that's not supported on your CPU.  I don't know if the BSD's overload 
that in any way, but I'd be surprised if they did.

I've not touched the *BSD's since the 90's, so I don't think there's 
much useful advice I could offer other than to try their mailing lists 
(unless someone here has better ideas).

Which BSD are you using?

All the best,
Chris
