Do you use the mainline? The hex bug happens with
the snapshot 20020902 (and gcc-3.2 release).
gcj -v says: gcc version 3.2.1 20020902 (prerelease)

I use GNU libc stable release version 2.2.2 on a linux box.
Even stranger: Using gcj 3.2 (release) the example works
on Solaris 2.7 but fails on Solaris 2.5.1.

Can anyone else see the problem on Linux?

Very strange...

Martin.
