While working on Linux and using gdb for debugging, there were constantly 
SIGSEGV errors that gdb
reported and stopped execution.

Researching this problem on the net it turns out that Java may refer to 
inaccessible memory
addresses which it will handle when SIGSEGV occur. In the case of running it 
under gdb such
exceptions are intercepted by gdb. In order to let Java handle the SIGSEGV 
exceptions one needs to
add the following line before starting the program that uses Java:

    handle SIGSEGV nostop noprint pass

Maybe this could be added to the gdb-information in the Wiki, hence reporting 
it here.
