java web start broken

[John Wendel]

I just installed the latest JDK from Sun using rpms built with the 
jpackage spec file. The install seemed to work properly and everything 
that I've tried works, except java web start.

strace shows the error, javaws looping on

waitid(P_PID, 3163, 0xbff85180, 0, NULL) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

This is the same bug that was in 1.4.2.crap. bug.sun.com shows that 
it's fixed in 5.2 (where's that?).

If anyone has a fix to share (that doesn't involve a preload .so), I'd 
appreciate it.

Regards,

John
