update caused java breakage

[brian]

Since allowing some updates a couple days ago, I can no longer run 
jEdit. It looks like it's something to do with X11 or GTK but that's 
about as much as I can figure out.

When I try starting the app, it hangs with a white screen. The 
~/.jedit/activity.log shows:

An error occurred while connecting to the jEdit server instance.
This probably means that jEdit crashed and/or exited abnormally
the last time it was run.
If you don't know what this means, don't worry.

I've tried starting it from a terminal with the -noserver switch but it 
still hangs, and I get a backtrace:

I'm really unsure of what to make of that. The security stuff made me 
wonder about SELinux but that's disabled.

I've also tried moving ~/.jedit but encounter the same hangup. Attempts 
to install 4.3pre16 or the older 4.2 result in pretty much the same 
backtrace as above.

While trying to debug this, I also realised that I don't have openJDK 
installed, which seems really odd. I thought that was the default for 
Fedora 10.

$ rpm -qa | grep java
glib-java-0.2.6-13.fc10.i386
java-1.5.0-sun-jdbc-1.5.0.14-1jpp.i586

java-1.5.0-sun-alsa-1.5.0.14-1jpp.i586
java-1.5.0-sun-devel-1.5.0.14-1jpp.i586

Anyone think it's worth installing openJDK to see if it deals better?
