ORA-03113 error when running the Java stored proc demos

Question

Hi there,
Has anyone else run into this issue. When attempting to transfer an object type from Java to Oracle - through a Java stored proc - the session crashes with:
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channelLooking in the trace file generated the error message looks something like:
ksedmp: internal or fatal error
ORA-07445: exception encountered: core dump [0x8fe04468] [SIGTRAP] [unknown code] [0x8FE59034] [] []
Current SQL statement for this session:
select pointruntime.jdistance(point(1, 2), point(2, 3)) from dual

                                                   0 ? 0 ?As you can see from the trace snippet above, I was attempting to run one of the Oracle Java stored procedure demos. Has anyone successfully run those demos? Specifically the ones where complex types (table objects or the Point object) are passed back to Oracle from the JVM.
I would appreciate some help with this. The code works fine in a Windows or Solaris environment but barfs on Apple. Truly annoying....
Anyone?
Thanks in advance,
Alex

Yes,
Apologies for not stating that information, Steve. Was a bit naughty of me! I guess the reason I didn't was because I just wanted to hear if anyone else running Oracle on Mac received such errors when executing the Java stored proc demos (specifically, the execution of PointRuntime.jDistance). Nevertheless, here's the relevant info from the trace file:
