"java -version" returns the following on baremetal Linux, this simple test is 
enough to cause the problem in domain0

java version "1.4.2"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2)
Classic VM (build 1.4.2, J2RE 1.4.2 IBM build cxia32142sr1a-20050209 (JIT 
enabled: jitc))

An strace on the java process shows these two messages being dumped over and 
over again in a loop:

rt_sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, [ILL TRAP BUS FPE SEGV], ~[KILL USR2 STOP RTMIN 
RT_1], 8) = 0
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
