Ah no, I had not noticed. I first pushed into a temporary branch and
everything was OK so I pushed into master again without checking since
it was the exact same commit.

Hmmm no, signal 4 is SIGILL, we're using it for our asserts (BUG_ON()).
I never know how to retrieve the stderr log from these tests, there are
too many layers for me, I've been explained several times but cannot
memorize it.

I'm rebuilding here on a freebsd machine, hoping to see it happen again.

Note that we cannot rule out a transient issue such as a temporary memory
shortage or too long a CPU pause as such VMs are usually overloaded.
Maybe it has nothing to do with your new test but just randomly triggered
there, or maybe it put the light on a corner case. At least it's not a
segfault or such a crash that would indicate a pointer misuse.
