[mythtv-users] Finding out what's causing an Illegal Instruction in MythTV??

Prior to heading down the MythTV installation path, my Via C3 Gentoo system was configured to compile as i686.
 
It turns out this isn't the correct thing for the Via C3 (Ezra) - apparently it should be as a i585...
 
I've re-emerged/compile what I believe to be all the relevant MythTV related modules and dependecies - mythtv, xfree86, qt, lame, etc, etc, but MythTV still dumps with an Illegal Instruction when I try to watch TV.  I can use the program guide, and Myth Music and Gallery run fine.  xawtv also runs fine, and as far as I can tell is OK about XVideo.
 
Here's a dump of running the backend/front end.  As you can see, I don't get much info about what library the illegal instruction occured in...  
 
Any ideas on how to find out which library in my system still needs a recompile as i585 instead of i686???
