Actually, gvSIG does use GDAL for raster projections. Unfortunately, the interface to the GDAL tools is a bit incomplete. So it is only possible to do a raster reprojection if both source and target raster use an EPSG SRS code. It won't work e.g. for a user-defined SRS.
If gvSIG crashes like that, then it can only mean that an external tool or C library has crashed or aborted prematurely. E.g. if you try to reproject to a user-defined SRS. The Java machine never falls onto its face like that. The whole reprojection engine in gvSIG really needs an update. That's also true for the EPSG database which is now several years outdated. Unfortunately, that's not an easy task.
