The runtime implementation of the ldc bytecodes has an ASSERT block, which does
some sanity checks after the constant has been resolved [1]. The checks include
loading the cached reference of the loaded constant using the
ConstantPool::cp_to_object_index() method. This can fail, if the type of the
loaded constant is not a reference, but a primitive type. This can happen on
32-bit ARM softfp, since double constants are loaded using the runtime
implementation on that platform (see [2]). If no other constants have been
loaded before and there are no cached references, using the
ConstantPool::cp_to_object_index() method crashes HotSpot with a SIGSEGV.
This is the backtrace of a slowdebug build:

Sample application:

class Test {
    public static void main(String... args) {
        double x = 4.2;
    }
}
