Hi!

I have a nasty problem with Bloomberg's Java applet (no URLs -- a trader's 
secure card is required to login).

Whenever the applet starts, the entire system freezes completely...

The last thing to display on the screen is the new browser window with Java 
logo in it...

The browser runs as a regular user -- the only way for it to reliable hang the 
OS, I think, is by doing something bad to linprocfs (or procfs)?

Again, this is FreeBSD/amd64-6.1 system, running linux-firefox (32-bit) with 
linux-sun-jdk14's plugin.

Any ideas?

I updated the linux-sun-jdk14 to patchlevel 12 (diffs attached), and will try 
to see, if that makes any difference tonight...

Thanks!

	-mi
