Nothing looks suspicious in the log until the last line.  Do you get
the core dumped?  If you do, what is the stack trace (use gdb)?  How
about making grf1 and grf2 devices? (though I have doubts the extra
grf devices are going to help)

Not sure.  -O2 alone shouldn't make it crash, though.

What is your system's configuration?  Especially your machine model
and extra NuBus/PDS/CS devices if any.
