Linux/PPC, gcc 2.95.1, libgcj 2.95.1, glibc 2.1.1, 2.2.12 kernel
>Description:
Segfault in GC_mark_from_mark_stack when running compiled (native)
HelloWorld.
Note gcj -C works fine to compile java source
to class files.
But when used with main= to compile to native
even simple programs seg-fault in GC_mark_from_mark_stack in mark.c in boehm_gc.
>How-To-Repeat:
gcj -g --main=HelloWorld HelloWorld.java
a.out
>Fix:
Unknown, gdb does not work well enough with shared libs
under powerpc to pinpoint the exact cause of error.
