The application below can crash the Solaris JDK 1.1 runtime on Solaris
2.5, 2.5.1 and 2.6
I am informed that the latest JDK 1.1.1 nightly build also
exhibits the same problem (as of 25th March 1997)

To reproduce compile & run the example program included below.
2 threads are created, each of which are creating and destroying
windows.
If you then take sight of a button and try hard to click on it, soon
enough the runtime will crash.
^XIf it doesn't just exit the app and restart. It will almost certainly
happen next time.
The mouse-clicking seems to be important to make the crash happen.

Here is one particularly weird instance in which after one click
I started getting a NoSuchMethodError each time a new window was
created!

EVentually after more clicking the runtime crashed

This is an update of bug report 4041235 for the Chicago board of trade.
I have done the following:

-I have the crash currently stopped in the debugger under a 1.1.1 build.

- I have expanded out the test case so it is a little more reproducible.

-I have managed to reproduce in the debugger. See the included stack trace and expanded
 test case.

-Also if you run with the following options -noclassgc -noasyncgc -ms10m the problem does not seem to happen. More specifically I think
  the problem is related to Garbage collection.
