A long time ago there were some problems with the GC's MPROTECT_VDB 
mode, which is required for incremental GC, and linuxthreads. This may 
well be resolved by now, so you could try adding a 
GC_enable_incremental() call into libjava/boehm.cc:_Jv_InitGC and see if 
it works. Let us know how you get on!
