I haven't paid much attention to this bug report. I do believe there
is a real bug. Perhaps it has already been pointed out and addressed,
but it would clarify things a bit to know the environment.

Does the bug occur in jconsole? If so that removes the considerable
complexity of the front end.

Does the bug occur in both J701 and J602?

The simplest demonstration of the bug starting with a clean J session
would help. bdysegs probably means something to those who have been
following closely, but it would be far better to have the complete set
of simple statements in a clean start (jconsole if possible) that show
the bug.
