jvm crash dump

While compiling java code, jvm crashes with SIGSEGV at CompilerThread1.
This happens with sun jdk 1.6.0_05, 1.6.0_04, but works OK up to 1.6.0_05, 1.6.0_03, and in 1.5 jdks.
Crash is in phtread code.
Tested against glibc 2.6.1 and 2.7.
It only happens while compiling.

It looks like you have other plugins than the Eclipse SDK ones. Can you reproduce with an Eclipse fresh install?
Comment 2 Nebojša CLA 2008-03-28 07:36:12 EDT 
Yes. I made fresh install of eclipse-java-europa-winter-linux-gtk.tar.gz.
Precisely the same happened.
This helped around the problem:

Smells like a VM bug.

I tried to find something similar upstreams, without success. Are you going to pass it on or should I?

Please report the problem to the VM vendor.
