Public bug reported:
The latest security update of OpenJDK 6 appears to have broken NetBeans
and other NetBeans platform based applications such as VisualVM. It may
break many other Swing applications - not tested. Manifests as UI
issues, NPE's and lockups (eg. find usages dialog hangs NetBeans). One
stack trace shows EventQueue.isDispatchThread() returning false from
within the dispatch thread.
All is fine in current OpenJDK 7. Looking at NetBeans on OpenJDK 6 from
VisualVM (running on 7!) shows multiple AWT event queues and sometimes
deadlock between them. Same result is not seen when running NetBeans
with OpenJDK 7.
Running on 12.04 with OpenJDK-6-JRE 6b27-1.12.6-1ubuntu0.12.04.2
** Affects: openjdk-6 (Ubuntu)
