To have the debug stacktrace you have to compile Scilab with java debug enabled using :
./configure --enable-debug-java

After a quick look at XConfiguration.java on the Scilab source, it seems that you need :

 1. Scilab commons and Scilab localizarion modules loaded
   (the JARs are on classpath and dll/so files are on the librarypath)
 2. SCI defined as an environnement variable
 3. Scilab history_manager module loaded

HistoryPrefs could be casted to XConfigurationListener as it implements directly this interface :
`public class HistoryPrefs implements XConfigurationListener`. there is probably a memory corruption
somewhere.

To debug that you can load the HistoryPrefs on your code explicitly. This might probably produce a
more precise error.

Do not hesitate to tell us your advancement as we can pre-load things explicitly on JavaSci
directly,

Thanks,
