[oe] [meta-java] Trying to update openjdk-7 to icedtea 2.5.4 and jdk75b13

[Sven Ebenfeld]

Hi Max, Hi Otavio,

I've managed to build and run OpenJDK-7-75b13 on an armv7 target but now
I run into an issue reported all around in the net:
http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1851

I'm adressing the same issue with the quartz library on my target as in
the last comment. For this specific case it looks like the segfault is
thrown on a call to Object.clone() within the quartz library.
Unfortunately I don't find any bugfix or other hint for fixing that
issue. Other sites state, that "-XX:+PrintCommandLineFlags" works around
that issue. This is right but it makes the VM painfully slow. So it
looks like either the ThumbEE or the whole ASM optimizations won't be
used with that option.

I've looked for solutions a lot but didn't find anything helpful, yet.
Any ideas?

If anyone wants to play around with my current work. Please have a look
at my fork on github https://github.com/esven/meta-java/tree/jdk_update

Cheers,
Sven
