Hmm, it appears that linker changes may have caused bad things to occur
in the JDK.

This code makes heavy use of the runtime loader, so any changes made
there could negatively effect the JDK.
        Dl_info dlinfo;
        dladdr((void *)InitializeAlloc, &dlinfo);
        jio_snprintf(buf, PATH_MAX, "%s", dlinfo.dli_fname);

Just out of curiousity, where is your JDK installed?  (full path, not a
symlink setup if possible..)
