crashes after building from most recent sources

[John Rose]

The root problem appears to be that libjvm is mapped twice.  The second mapping is used by native methods.  The first execution of Thread.currentThread() binds to the uninitialized second copy of JVM_CurrentThread (jvm.cpp) which accesses an uninitialized table _sp_map to get Thread::current().  A broken _sp_map drops the JVM.

There have been launcher changes in the last several weeks.  Perhaps they have caused the double mapping.  Or maybe that was happening all along, but now it has become problematic.

By the way, the double mapping does not happen with "gamma" (non-launcher debug executable), which is why I suspect the launcher.

SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00000001020ebe55, pid=29047, tid=4298117120

Do you want to debug the problem?

To debug, run 'gdb /proc/29047/exe 29047'; then switch to thread 4298117120 (4298117120)
Enter 'yes' to launch gdb automatically (PATH must include gdb)
Otherwise, press RETURN to abort...
