ZeroLengthArray.java from regression workspace is failing with 1.4.2_09-b01 and passing with 1.4.2_08-b03 on Solaris.

Workspace Location:
-------------------

Parent workspace:
======================
/net/shiva.sfbay/test/MyTestArea/JDK1.4.2/workspace_142/test/CTE_REGTEST/Generic/4804447

Child workspace:
=====================
/net/urts071.india/export6/testSuites/Regression/workspace_142/test/CTE_REGTEST/Generic/4804447

Run the test using JTreg tool or manual, test fails with 1.4.2_09-b01 and passes with 1.4.2_08-b03.

How to Reproduce:
==================

Copy the directory 4804447 from above mentioned location.

Install the jdk including debug version.

Set TESTJAVA and TESTCLASSES

Compile ZeroLengthArray.java and execute Test4804447.sh.

Result for 1.4.2_09 is exit 1. For 1.4.2_08 exit code is 0.

Core dump is expected for all the jdks with the fix in 1.4.1_07. But dumping of core is different for 1.4.2_09.

Testcase is basically grepping for Signal 11 in test.out which is not detected for 1.4.2_09.

Output:
