thanks for your offer. I hope it's fast enough, for your spare time. I'll try
to describe the shortest path I'm aware of.

That should be perfect. My 'uname -a' gives:

FreeBSD siliki.sunrise.local 8.0-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p2 #0: Tue Jan
 5 21:11:58 UTC 2010
root at amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64

What I've done:

1. Install openjdk6-b17_2
2. Install apache-tomcat-6.0.26
3. Download http://nexus.sonatype.org/downloads/older/nexus-webapp-1.4.1.war
4. mkdir /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0/webapps/nexus
5. chown www:www /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0/webapps/nexus
6. cd /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0/webapps/nexus
7. unzip -q /path/to/nexus-webapp-1.4.1.war
8. In /etc/rc.conf (or /etc/rc.conf.d/tomcat60 like I did) set (all on one line)

tomcat60_java_opts=-Xms128m\ -Xmx512m\ -Xss4m\ -d64\ -server\
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true\ -Dplexus.nexus-work=/path/to/sonatype-work/

9. mkdir /path/to/sonatype-work/
10. chown www /path/to/sonatype-work/
11. Enable tomcat60 start (rc.conf, ...)
12. Start Tomcat using OpenJDK (i.e. by setting JAVA_HOME before calling start
script)
13. Open Nexus web page (http://host:8080/nexus/, or whatever tomcat is set to)
14. Log in to Nexus (user: admin, pass: admin123)
15. Go to "Scheduled Tasks" in navigation on the left
16. Create task
     I named it "Refresh Indicies", it's of type "Download Indexes" for "All
Repositories".
     Recurrence over here is "daily" at 1:15am. I'm not sure this matters, as
I get the crash even when manually starting the task.
17. Right click task in task list, "Run"

It'll now take some time, depending on repositories initially set up and
download speed for index files. Over here it crashes in the middle of index
refreshing, tomcat dies, core dumps and is gone.
Last log output in /usr/local/apache-tomcat-60/logs/stdout.log is

2010-05-05 19:57:11 INFO  - o.s.n.i.IndexerMana~          - Remote indexes
updated successfully for repository sonatype-sourceforge-releases
2010-05-05 19:57:11 INFO  - o.s.n.i.IndexerMana~          - Cascading merge of
group indexes for group "public", where repository
"sonatype-sourceforge-releases" is member.

Hope it crashes at your side as well, for this would mean it's reproducible :-)
