Package: openjdk-8-jre-jamvm
Version: 8u40~b09-1
Severity: important

Any attempt to use JamVM, even just checking the version, results in
failure with the following error message:

$ java -jamvm -version
Error initialising VM (initialiseClassStage2)
ClassBlock padding is less than java.lang.Class fields!
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

The previous version 8u40~b04-2 worked without problems. The problem
occurs equally with the Sid package (chroot environment) and a locally
built backport from the Sid sources to Wheezy, all on amd64. Using the
default VM from openjdk-8-jre-headless, Java works as expected.

Please let me know if I can help with debugging this further.
