It means the VM is freeing an internally-reference-counted UTF8 string
constant twice.

Several bugs that exhibit this behavior have been fixed in the CVS
repository.  I assume you're using the "stable" 1.0.5 or 1.0.6
release?  (Try 'kaffe -version' or 'kaffe -fullversion')

I do not believe there are any workarounds.
