Description
The ResourceMark shown here is new in 1.5.0_06.  It is incorrect, in that calls to "get_ctrl" can call "_nodes.map" which is a growable array.  If the array DOES grow here, the then new storage will be allocated inside the ResourceMark, and reclaimed on exit from get_late_ctrl, leaving the _nodes data structure dangling.


//------------------------------get_late_ctrl----------------------------------
// Compute latest legal control.
Node *PhaseIdealLoop::get_late_ctrl( Node *n, Node *early ) {
 ResourceMark rm;              // Temp allocation
 assert(early != NULL, "early control should not be NULL");
