Description of problem:
gcc aborts prematurely when linking with libjvm.so

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gcc version 3.3.3 20040311 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.3-3)

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
Create a minimal c program named abc.c, for example
int main()
{
  return 0;
}

2.
Build the program, linking with libjvm.so (allthough not needed), using the command
gcc -L/j2sdk1.4.2_04/jre/lib/i386/server -o abc abc.c -ljvm

3.
That's it.
    

Actual Results:  collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault]

Expected Results:  gcc should have produced executable abc and printed no messages.

Additional info:

Redhat 9 does not exhibit this problem. Still, maybe the problem instead is with libjvm.so.
