You are right that in such case hardware problems look like a remote
possibility.  Only that error you are quoting seems to be at least
weird.  Is it really the same on both machines?  Is it consistent on
different attempts on the same machine?  That could be an effect of
something scribbling where it is not supposed to and messing memory.  It
could be "interesting" to find.  You have gdb and 'screen-debug' and
possibly you can get something with these.
