RE: Calling java code from C/C++ code.

If we want to understand this a bit better, it would be very useful to know
exactly where in mark.c it is faulting (I have a good guess, but ...), and
what address it was trying to access at the time.  The output of a call to
GC_dump() at around that time would also be useful.
