Summary:  classpath/vm/reference/java/lang/Throwable.java setStackTrace() 
problem.

Original Submission:  Hi,

I was just reading though your code out of iterest (as you do ;-) and I think 
I've found a problem with the setStackTrace() method in the Throwable class.

The "stackTrace" parameter needs to be cloned/copied so that the caller can't 
then modify the internal stackTrace of the Throwable object by for example 
setting an index in the stackTrace array to null.

I was wondering about that myself. I recently updated that code to work with 
libgcj and added a similar note at that point.

I will add the copy as soon as I merge the code back from libgcj (it hasn't 
been approved yet).
