...just to add some clarifications:

I don't know how the situation is with OpenJDK? Did they already pick up
the upstream fix?

As I understand it, this bug is about a crash caused in the JDK java compiler.
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=214092
Of course, there might be other unrelated bugs in other third party libraries which also cause
a hard crash of the JVM (personally, I saw libxul, the GTK and occasionally the xserver-xorg,
but nither of these was reproducable for me).

For a Java user, all of these crashes might seem like "the same bug", but they aren't.
You can see the source of the problem in the stacktrace: look at the "Problematic frame".
