Unintentional abort with SIGUSR2

[Thomas Stüfe]

This looks like a bug. I can reproduce it on Linux (slowdebug jdk10-hs):

# To suppress the following error report, specify this argument
# after -XX: or in .hotspotrc:  SuppressErrorAt=/os_linux.cpp:4014
#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
#  Internal Error
(/priv/d031900/openjdk/jdk10-hs/source/hotspot/src/os/linux/vm/os_linux.cpp:4014),
pid=17525, tid=17525
#  assert(thread != __null) failed: Missing current thread in SR_handler
#

...

For me, it looks like the signal sent with kill() from the command line was
delivered to the primordial thread (pid == tid). That one was never
attached to the jvm and hence signal handling does not work there (for a
start, Thread::current() never got set).

Kind Regards, Thomas
