Hello all. There is a bug filed on Red Hat bugzilla: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=982801

To quote from the bug report:

> To reproduce download the code from https://github.com/rholder/jvm-loop-unswitching-bug, then run "./gradlew build". JVM crashes will occur during the test.
>
> As noted on the github page, adding -XX:-LoopUnswitching stops the problem occurring.

It seems to affect both OpenJDK & Oracle's JDK. Does anyone know of the 
status of this bug ? Has anything been filed ?

Best regards,
-Adam
