If these are JVM crashes again, we should try to start looking at this 
more systematically, and learn if and how Oracle handles that. 
(Historically the blame here is both on Oracle and Apple.)

Just a few days ago, I have already cross-checked with current JDK 8 
snapshots, akthough Oracle still lacks a schedule for official developer 
previews.  It did work a little better concerning a certain window/mouse 
focus problem that happens on JDK 7u13.
