Description
While testing G1 (with a solaris / sparc / 32-bit / server / fastdebug JVM) I came across this failure:

=============== DEBUG MESSAGE: checkcast_copy within a single array ================

EVALUATION

From Vladimir Kozlov:

I think it is because heap addresses crossed sign bit
(0x5a000000 - 0xf6400000) so compare is failed:

Heap
 garbage-first heap   total 2358272K, used 1529973K [0x5a000000, 0xe9f00000, 0xf6400000)

We need to fix array_overlap_test(). 

From Tom Rodriguez:

Right, so it's a false positive.  The greaterEquals should be greaterEqualsUnsigned.
