Hey Matthias!

    Thanks for taking the time to look at the problem for me.

    Is there any chance you were able to test with Intrepid as well? I was
thinking that it might be a quirk of my particular system, as I'm using PAE.
Hopefully I'll be able to check with Jaunty myself soon.

-Mike

Ah, also if it wasn't clear when I posted the report, even though openJDK complains, it still runs the program with no problem. So if the test that Matthias ran encountered an operational program, but didn't check to make sure that openJDK didn't report a problem, then this shouldn't be marked as fix committed.
