Problem summary
The JIT attempted to walk and generate code for bytecode only accessible via exception handlers that were unreachable. Unreachable bytecode are not required to pass verification. In cases where the unreachable bytecode is invalid, the JIT would crash walking the malformed bytecode.
Problem conclusion
This defect will be fixed in: 6.0.0 SR8 FP1 . The JIT bytcode walker now correctly determines the reachability of the bytcode in cases when it is only accessible via exception handling and does not process incorrect unreachable paths. . To obtain the fix: Install build 20100603 or later
