Hi !

    Umm..  you guys realize that setting CPUTYPE will generate specific
    instructions for that particular processor?  If you do not actually
    have a pentium-pro cpu in your box, using CPUTYPE=i686 is likely to
    produce instructions that your cpu does not support. 
Even if the processor matches, there could be problems.
Remember when I had these problems with a completely broken system ?
I suspect though the effect of gcc2 was multiplied by the usage of perl 5.8.
Cheers
Peter
