When I run xine v.0.9.4, it appears briefly for me and then crashes.
I see the following.

-----

dtkbox:/usr/src# xine
This is xine (X11 gui) - a free video player v0.9.4

Illegal instruction

I am running Debian SID with Kernel 2.2.19.
Sound works fine (mp3blaster). Graphics work fine via X itself.
I can navigate around the mounted DVD as well.
I'm stumped for ideas! Anyone know what could cause the
illegal instruction?

The last few lines of an strace are as follows:

Thanks for any insight into the error.
