The new update causes invalid opcode segfaults on my Xeon X5675 systems. [31388553.168216] traps: srcds_linux[14160] trap invalid opcode ip:f6dcff59 sp:ffc82a20 error:0 in dedicated_srv.so[f6c51000+23f000] in CryptoPP::Rijndael::Base::UncheckedSetKey
This stackoverflow issue descibes a similar problem: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22100851/failing-on-call-to-mm-loadu-si128-with-aesni-intrinsics-enabled This is a gist of the debug.log: https://gist.github.com/Arie/971d996028ba9a18df75cf9c617b801f I'm no C++ programmer but I think the new steam binaries got compiled with cryptopp on a CPU supporting AVX, and these can now not be run on a CPU without AVX.
