Compiler thread crashing in JDK 10-ea b37, still occuring in b41

[Uwe Schindler]

Hi,

the Lucene team found a compiler bug in the recent JDK 10 EA builds. Whenever the ICU4J module in Lucene runs its tests, at some point it fails with a SIGSEGV in the C2 compiler thread. It does not produce broken code, it just crushes the C2 compiler.

We have seen this since the ICU4J upgrade around January 7 (no changes in the JDK EA version), but it still happens with latest JDK 10-ea builds, too (build 41, downloaded today). An example build that failed:
https://jenkins.thetaphi.de/job/Lucene-Solr-7.x-Linux/1250/

It only happens with Java 10, Java 8 (u144) and Java 9.0.1 are both fine.

The stack trace is always looking like this:

You can download all hs_error and replay logs from the Jenkins build:
https://jenkins.thetaphi.de/job/Lucene-Solr-7.x-Linux/1250/ (see "build artifacts")

To reproduce: Check out Lucene/Solr from Github, change to "lucene" directory and run "ant ivy-bootstrap" (if not already done) and later go to fiolder lucene/analysis/icu and run "ant test" there (seen with with Java 10, G1GC).

Is there already work going on, or is this a new bug? If it's fixed on the JDK10 repo just give me the build number that should have a fix to try, otherwise we should open a bug report.
