I have attached the full pstack, the rerun script and have added two of the threads'
stack retraces to the comments section entry#10.
Comments
EVALUATION The most recent failures reported (those fixed with the workaround of not using large pages for the card table) are different than the failures originally reported in this bug. I've run the FinalizeLock test on arches and spot (with the large page off for card tables workaround) for 48 hours without seeing the original. I'm declaring that failure as "not reproducible" and will dup this CR to 6635560.

EVALUATION The jck60019 test fails fast and has failed every time I've run it on dr-good using both a recent jdk7 build b24 and my own build of gc_baseline. With the workaround to not use large pages for the card table, the test has run to completion twice. A complete run of the jck60019 is doing over 7500 GC's. In the failed cases, less that 10 GC's are typically done. The test FinalizeLock typically failed within 10 iterations on ruger.east. With the workaround for no large pages for the cardtable, it ran over 350 iterations without a failure.
