Bug#469314: jmp: glibc reports "/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/bin/java: double free or corruption"

[Itai Zukerman]

Package: jmp
Version: 0.51-1
Severity: important

I'm using jmp to profile a web app running under Jetty, started by Maven :).  Like this:

$ export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xrunjmp"
$ mvn jetty:run

And eventually get:

[INFO] Starting jetty 6.1H.4-beta ...
2008-02-29 11:03:50.690::INFO:  jetty-6.1H.4-beta
2008-02-29 11:03:51.502::INFO:  No Transaction manager found - if your webapp requires one, please configure one.

I do *not* have any problems if I start jmp with "-Xrunjmp:nomethods".  If you could 
help me turn the backtrace into something meaningful, I'd be happy to help debug 
this.
