> There were a number of places where the code called by hs_err reporting assumed/required an attached current thread. These would then cause secondary failures during hs_err reporting. Using a simple example of an unattached thread causing a SEGV I went through and eliminated all the problems I encountered. In some cases the thread dependency was obvious and easy to address directly, but in others we just skip that section at the top-level.

> Testing:
>  - manual inspection of hs_err file, for different GCs
>  - tiers 1-3 sanity

> Thanks
