Bug Description
Binary package hint: eclipse
Hello! I have updated to Gutsy recently and I noticed Eclipse throws a scary warning due to the new GSlice thing:
bogdanb@cimer:~$ eclipse
using specified vm: /usr/lib/jvm/java
***MEMORY-
===============
Eclipse starts correctly, but I encountered random crashes soon afterwards, for example when autocomplete comes up (automatically or when asked):
~$ eclipse
using specified vm: /usr/lib/jvm/java
***MEMORY-
#
# An unexpected error has been detected by Java Runtime Environment:
#

# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.6.0-b105 mixed mode, sharing)
# Problematic frame:
# C [libmozjs.

# An error report file with more information is saved as hs_err_pid12862.log

If I rename the library the crash complains about (cd /usr/lib/firefox && sudo mv libmozjs.so ~libmozjs.so) eclipse doesn't crash anymore, but it still shows the warning at start. (However, Firefox doesn't start anymore, so this needs either manual shuffling of the file or some linker script-fu to fix.)
I'm not sure if the warning and the crash are related, but they appeared at the same time, so there you go...

I attached this to Firefox, too, because it owns the library. Firefox gives the same warning, though I didn't notice instability yet.
