1.2.11 troubles on Intel Premiere/PCI II ?

Kernel: 1.2.8 and 1.2.11
Distribution: Slackware 2.3
gcc: 2.6.3 (a.out)

Hardware: Pentium P90 Premiere/PCI II motherboard (BIOS 1.0.10 up to 1.0.13)
NCR 53c815 SCSI (3.0.6)
SMC EtherPower PCI (SMC 8432BT, Tulip)

For 1.2.8 the board works well with the above hardware and software
(old and new tulip driver).

For 1.2.11 there is no bootup problem, no kernel panic, no anything, only
gcc and various other programs are dying w/ signal 11 while starting.
It's not the typical one of signal 11 while compiling the kernel (motherboard,
memory, cache) - it's while starting. I'm confused.

The same software (1.2.8 AND 1.2.11) (and hardware) is doing well on a P60
with a cheap 586SP4 motherboard.

Any ideas?
