I had something like this happen to my a few days ago. Various programs, including wget and ssh were dying with SIGILL. In my case, I'd moved a hard drive containing RHL 7.x from a Pentium II to a K6-II system. I'd fixed glibc and the kernel by installing the I386/I586 versions, but overlooked openssl. -- Cheers John.
