dacapo bloat benchmark fails on openjdk7

[Tom Rodriguez]

I built a copy of hotspot from b33 on ubuntu with gcc 4.2 and I'm  
seeing the same failure you are.  I believe this is the same issue  
covered by 6741642 which was found and fixed by the IcedTea folks.   
Applying the fix to a copy of b33 allowed dacapo to complete  
normally.  6741642 is in the hotspot-comp repository but won't trickle  
up into a promoted build for a couple weeks so you may need to apply  
this by hand to your version.  http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/hotspot-comp/hotspot/rev/fa4d1d240383 
  is the changeset of interest.
