----------------------------------------

The latest tiger builds cannot run the simpliest HelloWorld test with -Xss64k
option. It throws 'Segmentation Fault'. This error was observed with
-server -Xcomp options on solx86 platform for java VM, (but it properly works
for java_g VM):

% cat -n HelloWorld.java
     1 public class HelloWorld {
     2
     3 public static void main(String argv[]) {
     4 System.out.println("Hello World");
     5 }
     6
     7 }

% ../jdk1.5.0-b46/solaris-i586/bin/java -server -Xcomp -Xss64k -cp . HelloWorld
Segmentation Fault

% ../jdk1.5.0-b40/solaris-i586/bin/java -server -Xcomp -Xss64k -cp . HelloWorld
Segmentation Fault

% ../jdk1.5.0-b39/solaris-i586/bin/java -server -Xcomp -Xss64k -cp . HelloWorld
Hello World

The test passes on all other platforms and modes.

Due to this bug, nsk test
    nsk/regression/b4287029
produces core-file that can be considered as a failure
