Description
This assertion is observed at least on linux-i586/amd64 with both latest jdk6 (1.6.0_10-ea-b09)and jdk7 (1.7.0-ea-b24):
	#  Internal Error (/BUILD_AREA/jdk7/hotspot/src/share/vm/opto/type.hpp:1032), pid=1003, tid=1082296672
	#  Error: assert(_base == KlassPtr,"Not a klass pointer")

It occurs only in -Xcomp mode.

Testcase and hs_err file are attached.

Comments
EVALUATION While the failure mode is different, the test case for this bugid exercises the problem that is seen in 6646019.
