kudzu illegal instruction at startup

[Gianluca Cecchi]

It is strange to reproduce, as kudzu is a shell script.
And right this boot time it gave no error.
Analyzing commands, it seems that the offending command is
kudzu -z || kudzu
Tipically tou have sometimes the illegal option error, sometimes not,
and it happens with the second kudzu in the command
So I tried a two times sequence with:
[root at fedora ~]#  kudzu -z ||gdb  kudzu

(gdb) quit
The program is running.  Exit anyway? (y or n) y

I don't know if other answers in last error could be more useful...
HIH,
