From the FAQ (http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/troubleshoot.html#AEN1083):

  Q: My programs occasionally die with ``Signal 11'' errors. 

  A: This can be caused by bad hardware (memory, motherboard,
     etc.). Try running a memory-testing program on your PC. Note
     that, even though every memory testing program you try will
     report your memory as being fine, it's possible for slightly
     marginal memory to pass all memory tests, yet fail under
     operating conditions (such as during bus mastering DMA from a
     SCSI controller like the Adaptec 1542, when you're beating on
     memory by compiling a kernel, or just when the system's running
     particularly hot).

  The SIG11 FAQ (listed below) points up slow memory as being the most
  common problem. Increase the number of wait states in your BIOS
  setup, or get faster memory.

  For me the guilty party has been bad cache RAM or a bad on-board
  cache controller. Try disabling the on-board (secondary) cache in
  the BIOS setup and see if that solves the problem.

  There's an extensive FAQ on this at the SIG11 problem FAQ
