Those hs_err_* files were not what I was expecting at all.  You
normally get one of those when the java process itself crashes and
that is always a bug in java and not the application.  How exactly did
you provoke it into dropping that file?

I see from them that you are using the openjdk with Ubuntu,
so I tried openjdk on my Fedora machine and didn't get a problem but
then it is 32bit and has a higher build number so probably has
different (perhaps fewer ;) bugs.

If you can I'd try the Sun jdk instead to see if that is any different.
