Scott, 
I'm forwarding your message to the swarm-support list in the
hopes that somethimg might jump into another user's mind.

But, in general, the only thing I can suggest is that GCC is
not installed properly.  But, I'm sure you knew that.  Have you
run it in the debugger?  If not, try it and when it quits, do
a where to isolate the "illegal instruction."  Also, you might
try browsing the FAQ.

If none of that helps, we'll have to peruse the output of 
your configure and make processes. (I'm assuming you built
GCC yourself?)
