With earlier versions of 1.5 I had a problem for which the crash report said
that an "unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine".
However, in my case the problem seems to be gone in 1.5.0_05-b05. Details
of the original problem are in a thread from a year ago:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.java.programmer/browse_thread/thread/6e12e8e3c39c7cc4/fc26f4eb1aa040d0
It seems that there is no general answer to the stability question - the
latest version seems to be stable for some programs and unstable for others.
For those who imagine that this bug was fixed after Sun responding to my
concerns, Sun refused my bug report saying they needed a "compact test case
that simulates the bug you have reported". Since it is not trivial to do so
for JVM bugs that occur about 5% of the time in huge programs I devoted some
time to helping find their bug but they never accepted a bug report.
I am not surprised to find that bugs of this type remain.
