I have the same concern as David. I think that throwing OOME, in  
places where there is obviously a simple programming error, is not a  
good idea. Will it be possible to change it to throw  
IllegalArgumentException instead?
I have one more comment about the patch itself - changes to src/share/ 
vm/gc_interface/collectedHeap.inline.hpp and src/share/vm/utilities/ 
exceptions.hpp are unrelated to the bugfix. I think it will be better  
to separate them to the different changeset.

Bye,
