Bug Description

This happens under josm but I'm pretty sure it's a general issue with the JVM as JOSM is a pure-Java application.

Steps to reproduce:

 $ sudo aptitude install josm
 $ java -Dsun.java2d.opengl=True -jar /usr/share/josm/josm.jar
#
# An unexpected error has been detected by Java Runtime Environment:
#
# SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x92453236, pid=7588, tid=2385771408
#
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (11.0-b15 mixed mode linux-x86)
# Problematic frame:
# C [libGL.so.1+0x5d236]
#
# An error report file with more information is saved as:
# /home/avar/hs_err_pid7588.log

The error report is attached.
