[kaffe] ARM build hangs / throws "Internal error: caught an unexpected exception."

[Bogdan Grigorescu]

Hi,

  I'm having a similar problem to Miquel Comas: latest CVS head hangs
on an XScale board ("uname -m" is "armv5tel") when loading a console
Hello World.

With pthreads I ran "java -v -debug" and it hanged after the last message:
"Loading java/lang/IllegalThreadStateException.class(/usr/local/kaffe/jre/lib/rt.jar) [compressed]"

I recompiled with jthreads and this time it didn't hang, it exited with a little more info:
"Loading java/lang/IllegalStateException.class(/usr/local/kaffe/jre/lib/rt.jar) [compressed]
Internal error: caught an unexpected exception.
Please check your CLASSPATH and your installation.
java/lang/ExceptionInInitializerError
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader(ClassLoader.java:777)
Aborted"

More details details here:

  Could there be a problem with my configuration or is there a
potential problem in ClassLoader on ARM?

Regards,
Bogdan
