Description
Hello everybody,

I got one crash issue on OpenJDK7 windows build.

I captured the stack trace of such a crash, which happens intermittently on my 64bit Windows 2008 server. But unfortunately I have no simple test case to reproduce this problem.

RtlInterlockedFlushSList+0x2ea (0x779F2A7F [ntdll+0x32a7f])
RtlInterlockedFlushSList+0x572 (0x779F2D07 [ntdll+0x32d07])
RtlInterlockedFlushSList+0x45d (0x779F2BF2 [ntdll+0x32bf2])
HeapFree+0x14 (0x755A14D1 [kernel32+0x114d1])
free+0x1c (0x7284016A [msvcr100+0x1016a])
free_netaddr+0x11 (networkinterface.c:107, 0x725A12AC [net+0x12ac])
getAllInterfacesAndAddresses+0xb6 (networkinterface_winxp.c:199, 0x725AB4C8 [net+0xb4c8])
Java_java_net_NetworkInterface_getAll_XP+0x12 (networkinterface_winxp.c:693, 0x725AB7AB [net+0xb7ab])

From the code at src/windows/native/java/net/NetworkInterface_winXP.c:195, I believe it is the dangling pointers that caused this problem. The uninitialized pointer netaddrP is exceptionally freed if the call to Windows API "GetIpAddrTable()" fails.

EVALUATION Suggested fix contributed by IBM. Looks fine.
