While running jbb with a recent version of hotspot, I am seeing an
assert (in jvmg builds) or a SEGV (in profiling builds).

To reproduce,

cd <jbb_directory>
java_g -server -classpath jbb.jar:jbb_no_precompile.jar:check.jar:reporter.jar -Xms200m -Xmx200m spec.jbb.JBBmain -propfile SPECjbb.props

The failure looks like:
