I tested the RAM by BIOS and by program from www.memtest86.com. This is
not an overclocked CPU and its cooler is working fine. I don't think
it's overheating. Do you know any software to test the CPU? Did you
build the world and the kernel of RELENG_5_2 in FreeBSD 5.2.x running
on Pentium MMX system like mine? Were these builds always successful?

I heard from number of people that GCC 3.3.x is unstable, sometimes
produce wrong binaries and core-dumping fairly often. May it be that
case? I found report of the same problem http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2003-December/030644.html
