-------------------------------------

Ivan, do you have a small 100% reproducer for the interior pointer problem? would be great

> "memopt" optimization pass eliminates the innermost memory read accesses to A[i] preserving a temporary reference to the object in the innermost loop. When a GC intensive action is performed, the array (A) is moved to another location, but the temporary reference is not updated with GC (which leads to crash). So, I suspect a problem in GC enumeration or, maybe, some other aspects of JIT<->GC interface.
> some facts:
> On Jitrino.JET the test passes.
> On Jitrino.OPT the test leads to crash:
> $ $JAVA -Xem:opt ClTest
> SIGSEGV in VM code.
> Stack trace:
>         1: ?? (??:-1)
> <end of stack trace>
> Segmentation fault
> If "memopt" is turned OFF in opt.emconf, the test passes on Jitrino.OPT (but memopt performs correct transformations, which is visible from log files)
> If a larger Java heap is specified (which postpones GC actions), the test takes longer to run, but crashes, anyway:
> $ $JAVA -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -Xem:opt ClTest
> 1_20
> 2_20
> 3_20
> 4_20
> 5_20
> 6_20
> 7_20
> 8_20
> 9_20
> SIGSEGV in VM code.
> Stack trace:
>         1: ?? (??:-1)
> <end of stack trace>
> Segmentation fault
> The test is reduced from the kernel test ClassLoaderTest which fails with exactly the same symptoms.
