recent java segvs, in exception code

Tue Apr 3 10:55:00 GMT 2001

Today I updated the gcc 3.0 branch and did a complete rebuild from
scratch. I'm using x86 Red Hat Linux 6.2.
Certain programs crash like this:
#0 0x4050455a in next_stack_level (pc=0x40165839, udata=0xbf7ffa7c, 
 caller_udata=0xbf7ff9fc, saved_regs=0xbf7ff92c)

The problem seems to be here:
(gdb) p caller_udata->base_offset
7ドル = 135038872
(gdb) p caller_udata->cfa + caller_udata->base_offset
8ドル = (void *) 0xc78c837c
(gdb) p *(int*) $
Cannot access memory at address 0xc78c837c
This problem only seems to happen when I run `make
check-target-libjava'. If I copy the failing program (in this case,
StringBuffer_1.java) elsewhere and compile it with the installed
gcj, then it works.
