    Classfile modification leads to crash in GC.
    

Local fix

  • Short term solution is to disable the transformer/agent inducing
    class redefinition.
    

Problem summary

  • The GC crashed on reading a null forward pointer of a class that
    was redefined.
    

Problem conclusion

  • This defect will be fixed in:
    6.0.1 SR1 FP1
    7.0.0 SR1
    .
    The JVM has been updated to populate the forward pointer
    appropriately when a class has been redefined.
