The thinking seems to be that threading (or was it mutex) changes in the
kernel broke java, there is at least one bug open for it, others might
have been dupe'd to it now ...

it's been marked as an FC5 blocker
Thanks, Andy. Yeah, I remember reading some about that. I guess I
was hoping the threading/mutex stuff had gotten cleared up. This
certainly should be a show stopper and I'm sure it will be fun to
track down. Debugging threaded stuff is fun... It appears to affect
other things as well, eg mono apps.

I think it keeps a catalogue of class files and equivalent .so files
compile to native code, something like that ...
Makes sense. So it is probably safe to say it (gcj-dbtool) just
affects java and related stuff (eclipse, etc).
