package gcjwebplugin tags 298289 + patch thanks I can reproduce this error. It is caused by not initializing the thread support early enough; the call to g_thread_init should be made before creating the mutex, not right before locking the mutex. Replacing debian/patches/thread-init.patch with the attached thread-init.patch fixes this problem.
Also, gcjwebplugin needs to link against gthread, not just glib; otherwise a relocation error occurs when loading the plugin. (I don't know why this doesn't already occur with the current binary package in Debian.) Applying the attached link-to-gthread.patch and regenerating the autoconf files will fix this problem. - Josh Triplett
