[GR-58048] Unexpected process finished for GraalVM for JDK 22

[Montura]

Describe the issue
This Java program has to be finished with an exception when the exception occurred in the static initializer.

public class Test {
  static {
    init();
  }

  private static void init() {
    if (true) {
      throw new IllegalArgumentException("asdf");
    }
  }

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println("Hello world!");
  }
}

But it ends just with a message: Process finished with exit code 1

Steps to reproduce the issue

I was helping the Author of this issue to reproduce. Note that this issue is not happening with GraalVM for JDK 21.

This is a bug in upstream JDK. It can easily be reproduced outside GraalVM. I can confirm it is not happening in (open) jdk-21.0.2, but showing up in (open) jdk-22.0.2.

It seems to be resolved on the master branch of the jdk, so a fix will eventually land in a release (and in GraalVM).

Probable cause/fix: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8330864
