The example below hangs the debug VM in the latest mantis build (b07).
It doesn't hang without the GC flags. (Same program crashes the debug VM in
1.4.1 FCS).

Looks like the VM is hang when it starts finalizing the objects. Please see
the stack dump below. The java threads are blocked at a safepoint (GC ?). The threads don't seem to be able to resume after this safepoint.

The source of the test case is in the original description from HP below.
