Beyond the difference in page frame statistics and the 
difference in the handling of "4K-EMU", the bits below are the 
difference I found (on the THP side) between numa/base-v3 and 
your -v10 tree - but I'm not sure it should have effect on your 
JVM segfault under THP ...

I tried with preemption on/off, debugging on/off, tried your 
.config - none triggers JVM segfaults with 4x JVM or 1x JVM 
SPECjbb tests.

Thanks,

        Ingo
