I've just committed the fix in "src/libexec/rtld-elf/rtld.h" revision
1.12. The Java runtime was peeking into some of the dynamic linker's
private data structures. My recent changes added some new members
which changed the layout of the structures. I've moved the new
members to the end to work around the problem.
This is really a JDK bug, but I understand they did it that way to
work around limitations in the dynamic linker. I'll try to help them
find a less fragile way.
