(as) core dumped

[hansaplast]

My log file contains the following events:
Feb 9 13:07:08 svr01 kernel: pid 84230 (as), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)
Feb 9 13:07:08 svr01 kernel: pid 84236 (as), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)
Feb 9 13:46:10 svr01 kernel: pid 12709 (as), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)
Feb 9 13:46:10 svr01 kernel: pid 12715 (as), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)

AFAIK "as" is the portable GNU assembler. What I don't know is why 'as' is launched and why it crashes.
A quick "ps ax" shows me that no 'as' process is running (even after a reboot).

Since I'm in the dark here maybe someone shed some light as to why as is crashing.

Hmm.. Now that I think of it.
It could be that the assembler crashes during port_upgrade. In the next run I'll try to keep a log of the upgrade.

Any other thoughts are still welcome.

In my case, as core dumps during gcc44 upgrade, so it's very likely.
