[Bug 121413] Re: eclipse reports memory corruption, crashes

[Bogdan Butnaru]

OK, so I tried creating a new workspace, with the bug "enabled" (ie, the
libmozjs file in the normal position), Eclipse crashed. So I hid
(renamed) the file as described above, started Eclipse again, created a
workspace (it worked), stopped Eclipse, and put the file back. Then:

(1) I Started Eclipse (with the new, blank workspace),
(2) created a new Java project (named test),
(3) created a new class named Test, in package test.
(4) In the body of the class I started typing "Str" and pressed Ctrl-Space for the auto-completion.
(5) Eclipse worked the hard drive a bit, the little drop-box with the possible completions showed up, and a couple of seconds later Eclipse crashed. In quick succession:
    a. The error message appeared in the console (the one with "#" at the start of the lines);
    b. The Eclipse window disappeared;
    c. The dialog box that Eclipse shows on crashes appeared (see the contents below).

The exact same thing happens in any case when I press Ctrl+Space (and
also on automatic autocomplete), in any class in any project. It does
happen in other situations, too (like when I switch to a _new_ project,
not one that exists already). And the error is with the same file, as
far as I can tell. (Note, however, that the gslice/memory warning
appears right when Eclipse starts.)
