Description
Putting the libraries on the system classpath (instead of the boot classpath) makes the VM crash.

EVALUATION The logic of MethodHandles::verify_method_signature tries to resolve each class in the method signature with the loader and protection domain of the method holder class. The method signature is: (dbx) p m->signature()->print() Symbol: '(Lcom/googlecode/phpreboot/interpreter/EvalEnv;ILcom/googlecode/phpreboot/model/Var;)Z' count 1 The method holder class is: (dbx) p m->method_holder()->print() {instance class} - klass: {other class} - instance size: 2 - klass size: 86 - access: public final - state: linked - name: 'GenStub$0$trace' - super: 'java/lang/Object' - sub: - arrays: NULL - methods: a 'java/lang/Object'[2] - method ordering: [I - local interfaces: a 'java/lang/Object'[0] - trans. interfaces: a 'java/lang/Object'[0] - constants: constant pool [39] for 'GenStub$0$trace' cache=0xb6a750d0 - class loader: NULL - protection domain: NULL - host class: 'sun/reflect/NativeConstructorAccessorImpl' - signers: NULL - source file: 'script' - inner classes: [S - java mirror: a 'java/lang/Class' = 'GenStub$0$trace' - vtable length 5 (start addr: 0xb6a75038) - itable length 2 (start addr: 0xb6a75050) - ---- static fields (0 words): - ---- non-static fields (0 words): - non-static oop maps: Since the com/googlecode/phpreboot/* classes are loaded with the system class loader, the resolve fails, resulting in a null value, which is then passed on leading to the crash.
