Bug#387875: gij-4.1 4.1.1-13: segfault in postinst on hppa and arm

Package: gij-4.1
Version: 4.1.1-13
Severity: grave

The gij-4.1 package fails to install on arm and hppa due to a segfault in
gcj-dbtool-4.1:

Setting up gij-4.1 (4.1.1-13) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/gij-4.1.postinst: line 20:  8807 Segmentation fault  
gcj-dbtool-4.1 -n /var/lib/gcj-4.1/classmap.db
dpkg: error processing gij-4.1 (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 139
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of gij:
 gij depends on gij-4.1 (>= 4.1.1-2); however:
  Package gij-4.1 is not configured yet.

This of course prevents many packages from being able to build on these
architectures; e.g., trang, with build failures shown at 

  
http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?pkg=trang&arch=arm&ver=20030619-5.1%2Bb1&stamp=1157940816&file=log

and 

  
http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?pkg=trang&arch=hppa&ver=20030619-5.1%2Bb1&stamp=1158062398&file=log

No other architectures have shown these symptoms; X-Debbugs-Cc set to the
relevant porter lists.

It is particularly important for arm that this be fixed quickly, since arm
is very much not keeping up with java-related packages right now and doesn't
stand much chance of being included in the etch release without rapid
improvement.
