Description
Currently when hotspot crashes the output contains:

# JRE version: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (8.0)
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (24.0-b20 mixed mode bsd-amd64 compressed oops)

With the same installation "java -version" reports:

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0-internal-staffan_2012_10_09_15_30-b00)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.0-b20, mixed mode)


The first output above should then look like:

# JRE version: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (8.0) (build 1.8.0-internal-staffan_2012_10_09_15_30-b00)
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (24.0-b20 mixed mode bsd-amd64 compressed oops)
