I've just realized that "-XX:-UseLoopPredicate" JVM argument helps. So this must be same unfamous issue Lucene guys ran into:

This is a bug in Oracle's JRE. The only thing we could do is add a download warning and a readme entry.

John, let's discuss this at the PMC meeting.

We've announced this on the cross-project- and eclipse-dev lists.

Comment 10 Laurens Holst CLA 2011-12-13 16:47:42 EST 
Looks like it was fixed in the JDK 7u2 release, I no longer have the issue.

java.runtime.version=1.7.0_02-b13
java.version=1.7.0_02
java.vm.version=22.0-b10

According to their change log, it looks like it was already fixed in the 7u1 release: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/7u1-relnotes-507962.html (But I must’ve missed it, or they decided to skip a public release.)

it reproduces in jdk 1.7u4
Comment 15 Dani Megert CLA 2012-05-29 05:35:09 EDT 
(In reply to comment #14)
> it reproduces in jdk 1.7u4

Works fine for me using:

java version "1.7.0_04"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_04-b22)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.0-b21, mixed mode)

If you still see the crash, I suggest you file a new bug with all the details. Before that, make sure that Eclipse is indeed using that VM.

I was able to reproduce a crash using IE 9 and different JREs. See bug 407304  for details.
