Synopsis: SIGSEGV in GC
State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: tromey
State-Changed-When: Fri Sep 24 16:35:17 1999
State-Changed-Why:
FYI, this isn't a crash in the GC. That SEGV is "normal";
the GC uses it to determine stack boundaries. It is
ordinarily caught and handled by the GC -- you can see
this in the debugger by using "cont" to continue to the
real segv.
On Solaris you must use the GNU Binutils in order
to get a working Java executable. You have to first
build the binutils, then the compiler, and finally
the Java runtime for this to work.
I'm closing this directly because it has been reported a few
times already, and we definitely know this fix works.
