Same as before...
How can I tell if this is truly the case taht soffice/JRE
query procfs ?
My current fstab looks like

/dev/wd0a       /                ffs     rw              1 1
/dev/wd0b       none             swap    sw              0 0
/dev/wd0e       /usr             ffs     rw              1 2
/dev/wd0f       /var             ffs     rw              1 2
/dev/wd0g       /home            ffs     rw              1 2
/dev/wd0b       /tmp             mfs     rw,-s=614880
kernfs          /kern            kernfs  rw
procfs          /proc            procfs  rw,linux        0 0

You can ktrace the java process and then use kdump to see
what it does.
BTW, jdk versions < 1.4.2 hard-coded the stack position
so the procfs
fix will not work. In order for that jdk to work, you need
to re-compile
the kernel with a different base address. In that case, you
are better off
upgrading the jdk.
