Hello.

With latest snapshot kaffe does not fails assertion, but
throws NullPointerException...

I've compiled with -DDEBUG and switched on GCDIAG - results
for mmap:
Adding method kiev/vlang/PassInfo:<init>()V (2)
gc_heap_malloc: freelist 13 at 0x8053bf0
Kaffe: mem/gc-mem.c:289: gc_heap_malloc: Assertion `(((gc_block *)
gc_block_base) + ((((uintp) mem->next) - gc_heap_base) >> gc_pgbits)) ==
blk' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

hash:
Adding method kiev/vlang/PassInfo:<init>()V (2)
gc_heap_malloc: freelist 13 at 0x843c000
Kaffe: mem/gc-mem.c:289: gc_heap_malloc: Assertion
`((gc_block*)(((uintp)(mem->next)) & -gc_pgsize)) == blk' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

Running without GCDIAG under KAFFE_DEBUG=gdb shows:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Setting "kaffe -ms 32M -mx32M" do not help.
I saw some changes in mem/ files in Changelog - these changes may
be the reason...
Also, this is without doing any actual work. Kaffe loads a lot of
classes
even when I do "kaffe kiev.Main -h" - i.e. ask only type help info...
It loads parsers,resolvers classes and so on. Why it does this?
