No. Well prefetchnta, prefetcht0, prefetcht2 would work too (as well as just skipping it completely), but I cannot see why that would work better. As far I can tell, a sigill there should be impossible. Unless the asembler did something odd (I suppose you could not just look at the disassembly output, but look at the actual encoding). Also, it doesn't make sense that "it worked for a couple of days" and now doesn't, which is very suspicious...
