Ok,

I recreated your scenario and fixed it. The sollution is simple and kind
of clear once you know the answer. =)

The problem is that FreeBSD 4.x dont have SSE support on by default. So I
added the option to the kernel config and rebuild the kernel. (Actually I
had to rebuild the whole world due to a idiot of an admin updated
sourcefiles (namely me))

add to your kernel conf
