let us try the solution which is:
<snip>!!!! FIX !!!
in the java 1.3.1 release notes, i found this:

* For Linux users - The newer glibc-2.2.x libraries cannot correctly handle initial thread stack sizes larger than 6 MB. This can cause a segmentation fault on come Linux platforms that use the newer libraries. Such platforms include Red Hat 7.0, Mandrake 8.0, SuSe 7.2, and Debian 2.2. The problem will not occur on Linux platforms that are using glibc-2.1.x such as Red Hat 6.1 and 6.2. It will also not affect Red Hat 7.1 because it uses a different thread stack layout. This problem is being tracked as bug 4466587.

Workaround - Use "ulimit -s 2048" in bash shell or "limit stacksize 2048" in tcsh to limit the initial thread stack to 2 MB.

i added the line "ulimit -s 2048" to runlime.sh just before the call of java and now it works!

You can either put it in the runLime.sh or put it in your .bashrc or .bash_profile.

HTH, Please report any findings.
