For me VCR dies in approximately the same lcoation, but with an "Illegal
instruction". This I think is caused by avifile trying to use SSE/SSE2 on
for a CPU that does not support those extensions (a C3 CPU). Somehow the
CPU-identification code thinks that SSE/SSE2 is ok to use -> *poff*.

Could this also be your problem?
