With 2.3.2.ds1-7, I get:
merulo% ./ld-2.3.2.so --library-path `pwd`
~/jrockit-8.1sp1-j2se1.4.1-linux64.bin

===== BEGIN DUMP =============================================================
JRockit context dump produced asynchronously on Mon Oct 27 21:57:10 2003
If you see this dump, please send it, along with as much
information as you can on your system setup and the program
you were running, to support@bea.com. Please include the
file jrockit.30808.dump from the current
directory in the bug report. Thank you.
i.e. it crashes, but after going a little further. It's well into the
JVM at this point. It deletes its own core dump (what a bug...) so I
can't find out more. Under strace, it installs OK. This looks like a
clear-cut timing problem with their JVM; may want to report it to them.
'java' works fine and produces a usage message.
You may want to try -7...
