kernel core dump during make buildworld

[Redmond Militante]

hi all

i am trying to cvsup a 5_1-RELEASE machine

i'm at the 'cd /usr/src/ make buildworld' stage.  i can't run 'make buildworld' successfully on this machine.  i'm able to on my other 5_1-RELEASE machine (although it's different hardware...).  the buildworld seems to fail at different points randomly.  for ex., the most current kernel core dump/error i get when trying to complete this operation is

Illegal instruction(core dumped)
****Error code 132

stop in /usr/src/usr.bin/objformat
***Error code 1
stop in /usr/src/usr.bin.
***Error code 1...

Aug 28 12:30:39 host kernel : pid 61508 (make), uid 0: exited on signal 4 (core dumped)

any advice would be appreciated.  my hardware:

dell optiplex gx250 p4 2.4 ghz
500 mhz ram

FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p2 #1

thanks
redmond
