0F 0B is the official Intel undefined instruction, so V is correct to
whack your app on the head with SIGILL at this point.  The messages 
are admittedly confusing though.

Why the program SIGILLd though, I don't know.  One important question is:

> UNKNOWN __pthread_sigmask is unsupported. This warning will not be

Does that also get reported for the XCode 3.x built version, or only
w/ XCode 4?
