I would not think that seg fault would be caused by that, but there have 
been some problems reported here concerning problems with the 'arch' and 
'proc-opt' switches. Try it after deleting the '--enable-proc-opt' 
switch. Configure seems to get a little confused.

No promises however. Please report back....since I don't get that 
problem on my Asus P5l-MX mb with Intell 6600 Core2Duo @ 2.4GHz....weird 
that you do. Both uname -m and uname -p give my i686....
