Mode: -Xmixed, -Xcomp, -Xint
Platform : Linux

Steps to reproduce:
1. Point JAVA_HOME to the latest promoted jdk1.4 linux binaries
2. ${JAVA_HOME}/bin/java_g -server -version

Output:
[tester@nanobug ~]$ $JAVA_HOME/bin/java_g -server -version
java version "1.4.0-beta"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-beta-b54)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.4beta-B54-debug, mixed mode)
Segmentation fault
[tester@nanobug ~]$

Note: This seems to happen very intermittently with Server VM as well as Client VM. We observed it with both -Xmixed and -Xint modes.

**************************************************************
Still java -version throws Segmentation Fault in Linux with build 57 and specially on roborooter { version 7.0.91) it provides following output

Steps to reproduce
1) rlogin to roborooter
2) cd /net/jdk/export/disk8/local.java/jdk1.4/linux-i386/bin
3)./java -version

Output:
[tester@roborooter bin]$ ./java -version

-----------------------------------
also seen in ladybird. only happens in java_g, not reproducible with java.
it doesn't matter if I use "-Xcomp" or not, but it seems to happen more
frequently with "-Xcomp":

saw:~> repeat 500 java_g -Xcomp -version
... (after about 30 iterations) ...

-------------------------------------
This turns out to be that my workspace was somehow corrupted. After destroy
the old workspace and completely rebuild it with latest ladybird tree, I
cannot reproduce the crash with "repeat 500 java_g -version". What a
Saturday night.
