Which leads to this....

Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
[Switching to process 3824]
0x0f425434 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libpixman-1.so.0
Missing separate debuginfos, use: debuginfo-install graphviz.ppc
(gdb) 
bt
#0  0x0f425434 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libpixman-1.so.0

... which in turn leads to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=451831

No hardware access required :)
