Please run the beam processs under gdb (you can attach to it from
another shell using gdb --pid), do whatever is needed to trigger the
SIGILL, then (in gdb which should now show the SIGILL) disassemble
the faulting instruction and show us that and the register values.

HiPE generates ARMv5 code which should work on newer generations too.
