JVM Crashes with SIGSEGV for build shenandoah-jdk8-b498-20191212

[Roman Kennke]

Hi Jestan,

I identified and fixed the problem. See here:

https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/shenandoah-dev/2019-December/011193.html

It's currently going through our CI and should show up with one of the 
next (likely *the* next) nightly build here:

https://builds.shipilev.net/openjdk-shenandoah-jdk8/

Let us know if you still see problems, ok?

Thanks and best regards,
Roman
