Kaffe core dumps

[Godmar Back]

Give us more information, including but not limited to:
- the configure line you used.
- the version of gcc you used.
- the output of ldd /usr/local/kaffe/libexec/Kaffe
- a full stacktrace
- your CLASSPATH setting (if any)
- your LD_LIBRARY_PATH (if any)

It's impossible to guess from little you provided since the problem
does not appear to appear elsewhere.
