The verb "Cruciare", first person singular form "Crucio", means 'to torture', and 'to crucify' only in Lactantius, according to my dictionary. I still suspect medieval/Dark Ages latin and classical latin changes. After all, given the crucifixion, it's not at all strange that the word became wildly popular once Christians were involved with the language.
