Don't forget that the linux JDK will want you to have linprocfs

Hm. I cannot imagine how this could lead to the problems I saw, but
another thing to try. Thanks!
Linux systems store tons of need-to-know data in the /proc file system.
If you've ever installed a chrooted Linux environment you must 'mount -o
bind' the /proc file system from the running system to the chroot for
many OS functions to work correctly.
I suspect that Java was looking for some process information in
linprocfs and since it wasn't mounted, it blew up. :) Hope this clears
up the "why" question. :)
