No. None that I know about.

11 ist "Segmentation violation".

This can happen with gcc if you have one of

1) faulty memory, bad contacts, overclocked CPU, other hardware damage
2) a faulty page fault handler in the kernel
3) run out of swap space or of memory in a way unexpected to the program that
   runs.

Read in either "man sh" or "man csh" about setting of per-process resource
limits; increasing data size or stack size might help, if its 3), or you might
need to increase your systems swap space (read man swapctl for how to do this).

What were you trying to compile at that time?
