Linux/Apache "trap invalid opcode error messages"

I am seeing lots & lots of these errors in /var/log/messages:

kernel: httpd[4802] trap invalid opcode rip:2afb9d6cb89a rsp:2afb9d6f458a error:0

* What does that mean?
* Can I fix it?
* If it can be ignored, how can I prevent the log filling up with these messages?

This is on Linux 2.6.18-194.17.1.el5 on x86_64, CentOS 5.7
Apache version 2.2.3

I found nothing in /var/log/apache/error_log

I found that even httpd -v produced an error.

This is a "cloud server" - so I ditched that drive and did YUM updates from a backup, And, eh voila, the problem has gone away. "Corrupt data" in some way.

Thanks for your help you guys.
Good efforts - but in the end not the solution
