I'm seeing the same problem on my dual Athlon box. The freezes are 
totally random AFAICT, sometimes when the machine is just idling.

I've not used any CPU-specific make options but may try setting some to 
see if it makes a difference. One thing though, I only have

cpu		I686_CPU

set, not I486_CPU and I586_CPU as well, maybe that could be a problem?

I'm running -CURRENT and the build I did on 8 April didn't have this 
problem but it started with the next build I did a couple of weeks ago. 
I've cvsup'd and rebuilt a couple of times since, the last on 25 July, 
but the problem persists.
