In the grand tradition of RSA-in-3-lines-of-perl, we present Crash-A-Pentium-in-44-characters:

main(){int i=0xc8c70ff0;void (*f)()=&i;f();}

Hey, challenge is on:

main(){int i=0xc8c70ff0;void (*f)()=&i;f();} /* f00fies 44 char */ main(){((int(*)())"\360\017\307\310")();} main(){int i=0xc8c70ff0,(*f)()=&i;f();} main(i){int(*f)()=&i;i=0xc8c70ff0;f();} main(i){i=0xc8c70ff0;((int(*)())&i)();} (*f)();main(i){f=&i;i=0xc8c70ff0;f();} (*f)()="\360\017\307\310";main(){f();} /* 38 chars */

Compiled with gcc.

How about: long main[]={0xc8c70ff0}; or even main[]={0xc8c70ff0}; /* 21 chars */ Compiles with gcc, but I haven't tested it.
