Hello world segfaults with -static

[Martin Kahlert <martin dot kahlert at infineon dot com>]

Hi!

I do not have any idea, why this segfaults:

public class hello
{
 public static void main(String[] args)
    {
     System.out.println("Hello World");
    }
}

$ gcj -static -g -o hello hello.java --main=hello
$ ./hello
Segmentation fault
 
gdb's output: (although it strangly jumps around in the source)

next_index = 11163 when there is only one entry (GC_excl_table_entries=1)????

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Thanks for any hint,

PS: It works like a charm when you omit -static.
