Looks like the vtkWrapJava executable is crashing for a few of the
header files.   So this error appears to be completely unrelated to
the previous build problems.

When I encounter crashes like this, I turn on VERBOSE mode in make
so that I can see the full command-line, then I run the command by
hand in gdb to get a stack trace:

# delete the output file
rm Common/Core/vtkAbstractArrayJava.cxx
# turn on VERBOSE make mode
export VERBOSE=1
# run "make" again
make vtkCommonCoreJava
# copy the vtkWrapJava command-line, run it inside gdb
gdb --args /path/to/vtkWrapJava [args]
