HotSpot VM for win32 1.0fcs, 1.0.1 build c, 1.3beta build j,
HotSpot VM for sparc-solaris 1.0.1 build a fail to execute next test case:

//-------------------------- test.java -------------------------
import java.io.*;

class test {
public static void main( String argv[] ) {
System.exit(run(argv, System.out));
}
    
public static int run(String argv[], PrintStream out) {
for( int i=0; i<2000 ; i++ ) {
try {
new test().x(out, i);
} catch( Throwable e ) {
out.println(e);
}
}
return 0;
}

public int x(PrintStream out, int i) throws Throwable {
try {
x(out, i);
} catch( Throwable e ) {
out.println("x: " + e);
}
return 0;
}
}
//-------------------- end of test.java -------------------------

HotSpot VM for sparc-solaris 1.0.1 build a in all modes (-Xmixed, -Xcomp, -Xint)
terminates with next message:
"x: java.lang.StackOverflowError
An irrecoverable stack overflow has occurred.
#
# HotSpot Virtual Machine Error, Unexpected Signal 11
#
# Error ID: 4F533F534F4C415249530E4350500BCF 01
#"

HotSpot VM for win32 1.3beta build j in -Xmixed or -Xcomp modes
terminates with next message:
"#
# HotSpot Virtual Machine Error, EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION
#
# Error ID: 4F533F57494E13120E43505002AD
#

abnormal program termination"

HotSpot VM for win32 1.0fcs in -Xcomp and -Xint modes
terminates with next message:
"[1] + Done(139) ?
  266 Segmentation violation d:/jdk1.2.1A/bin/java"

All other terminates with non zero status.
It seems that Hotspot VM fails to execute any method after
catching StackOverflowError.
