You probably have the infamous Solaris bug. The fix is to use the
latest GNU ld from binutils instead of the Solaris linker.
The debugger stack trace you sent is a bit deceptive. The GC catches
some SEGVs when it is finding the stack limits; in this case I believe
if you "continue" you will see that this SEGV is one such.
