The Block Offset Table is accessed racily in many places. This is UB, but I suspect the authors of G1 assumed that the UB was "benign". In fact it is not, and there is a narrow race condition which causes G1 to crash at times of heavy stress. The bug has only ever been observed on 86-32, but it isn't a target-specific bug. It's probably not specific to G1 either.
