[FWTools] OpenEv crash with FWTools 1.0.0b3

I downloaded FWTools 1.0.0b3 for Linux and installed on a FC2 system. I 
am able to launch OpenEv, but so far everytime I try to open a raster 
image I get a crash:

/opt/FWTools-1.0.0b3/bin/openev: line 25:  4693 Illegal instruction 
${OPENEV_HOME}/bin/python ${OPENEV_HOME}/pymod/openev.py "$@"

I tried opening 2 raster files: a ECW file, and a TIFF file. I am able 
to open the same TIFF file in a copy of OpenEv that I downloaded from 
the OpenEv site (openev-linux-180.tar.gz), but I cannot open the ECW 
file with that release, that's why I was trying FWTools.

Is this a known issue with the FWTools distribution? Is there an easy 
way to troubleshoot this problem? Note that the FWTools "gdalinfo" is 
able to report info on both raster files.
