Unfortunately, none of this has helped me work around the problem with
Lotus Notes 8.0. AS mentioned in the bugzilla comments, it is another
retail package that includes its own JVM. I can't seem to find how it's
packed to try and apply the sed patch to it.

I'm having to run Notes for Windows in a VM for now because I need the
application for work. Anyone else had any luck with this part? I've
tried about a bazillion different things suggested here and elsewhere
and have had absolutely no luck at all...

Cheers,

Chris
