Bug#876069: i386 applications using JNI may crash due to Hotspot workaround for Exec Shield
Hi Ben,
I thought you'd like to know that, having applied your patch to
openjdk-8, and built it in an i386 chroot, the result fixes the
consistent lo-writer crashes I was seeing with the released version.
It was pretty disappointing to discover that on a clean stretch install
that I'd just done for a newbie, there were no viable word processors
because lo-writer just crashed, and abiword currently has a bug where it
madly refreshes the screen.
Thanks very much for finding this, and thus removing the egg from my
face :-)
Cheers, Phil.
