Invoking any Java program with a very long argument list results in this
error:

#
# HotSpot Virtual Machine Error, Internal Error
# Please report this error at
# http://java.sun.com/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi
#
# Error ID: 5448524541440E4350500473 FF
#
# Problematic Thread: Segmentation fault
Exit 139

To reproduce, try:

% /net/jdk/export/disk2/1.4/nightly/solsparc/latest/bin/javac Null.java

% /net/jdk/export/disk2/1.4/nightly/solsparc/latest/bin/java Null /net/quickserv/export/stripe/jai/IMAGEIO/IMAGES/gifs/[A-Z]/*.gif

where 'Null.java' is the program:

public class Null {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
    }
}

Any other Java program will work as well.

  The argument list for the above command has 9768 'words' and 698736
characters, as counted by 'echo ... | wc'. Slightly smaller argument lists
result in a segmentation fault without the error message shown above.
