        the problem got exposed by the fix of "6175681: 1.4.2 java web start sandbox application can have all permissions" exposed a problem, which on some sparc machines, running "javaws" will just hang there. It is due to a problem in our native code, where we try to do a malloc on a undefined value, which in this case it will causes it to malloc a very huge memory space, and caused fork to fail later with ENOMEM. This code was there since 1.4.2, but the problem never got exposed.
