      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      ===============================
      Java 1.4.2_11 crashes when run on Suse SLES11 running on Itanium-2 (Montvale) processor. There was a fix provided in this version of the jdk a few years ago to address a crash when running on the previous generation of Itanium-2 (Montecito). This seems to happen on Montvale + SLES11. SLES11 is not production yet and an early testing of Oracle indicates t his crash.
      The customer sent in a strace log and a data file, 28300. They are attached.

      The strace was interesting. 604 out of the 984 calls in strace were gettimeofday. All the gettimeofday calls were successful. It's strange that 60% of the calls in strace were gettimeofday. The last lines in strace was

      clone2( <unfinished ...>
      +++ killed by SIGSEGV +++

      I was hoping for more details on the crash. I've asked the customer to send in a hs_err file from a crash.
