I hit segmentation fault on Linux when running the following Java program
with Merlin b82+:

public class simpletst
{
   public static int f(int depth)
   {
     System.out.println("depth = "+depth);
     return f(depth+1)+1;
   }

   public static void main(String args[])
   {
      f(0);
   }
}

How to reproduce:

> java simpletst
...
depth = 53081
depth = 53082
