i can't find that file on my machine but i found this version

http://darwinsource.opendarwin.org/10.4.6.ppc/xnu-792.6.70/osfmk/ppc/ 
cpu_capabilities.h

which is maybe the right one. I tried to run gnuchess on another  
apple notebook and got the same errors there.
The error did not occur when i started configure with --without- 
readline.

this is what i get when i do a
(gdb) info symbol history:

history in section LC_SEGMENT.__TEXT.__text of /usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib

libedit can be found at http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/ 
Current/libedit-5.1/

another gdb run:

Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory.

does that help?
