See my bug report > http://sablevm.org/bugs/71 > This type of problem can occur if there is a write barrier missing somewhere where object to object references are modified. Missing write barriers can be difficult to track down as the program won't crash until the missed reference is accessed subsequent to an object being relocated by a GC invocation. I am working towards a research deadline in 2 weeks and don't have much time to debug now. These problems are easy to fix, but can be hard to find. If anyone knows of components that modify object to object references based on the demo code and can point me to them, I could check it out quickly. I'll try to verify the problem on my machine tomorrow and investigate briefly. Carl Lebsack
