	This appears to be a bug in java on Linux.  It's a bit difficult for  
me to reproduce myself, but here's the information that's been given  
to me so far:

	http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=535&threadID=5135128

	It may be the following bug:

	It's claimed to be fixed in a later release, but I don't know in  
which version.

	Would you be willing to work with me on confirming the problem goes  
away for you?
