I have them too sometimes. Signal 11's.
But it seems they happen after something else failse, like failing to 
connecting to mysql for example.
A user also reported to have Signal 11's while starting my project on a 
Raspberry Pi, thats maybe an ARM thingy.

I will try to gather some more information.
