Advanced JNI Problems on ARM

Hi,

I'm having advanced JNI problems which only occur on StrongARM (Linux),
not on x86.

If native code calls Java via CallStaticObjectMethod and a Java object is
returned to the native side, it is somehow broken arriving at the native side.

A small test programm which reproduces the Bug is attached.

My KaffeVM is (almost) current CVS version, jit3, unix-pthreads.

Any idea what might be the problem?

Thank you,
      Miriam Busch
