Kaffe core dump

[Archie Cobbs]

I just got a core dump from Kaffe when trying to compile something.
This is interesting in that it's not reproducible.. trying again
worked fine... so it looks like some kind of race condition.

I've saved Kaffe.core and can send it (plus the sources it came
from) to anyone who's interested in delving futher (you'll need
FreeBSD). Hopefully, this stack trace will give some hints..

  Core was generated by `Kaffe'.
