Yep.  It was reported many times before.  Most usual reason is hard
dependancy linux_base on linprocfs (in linux jdk case).  Second most
reported case with such behaviour is mixing threading libraries.  Since
you are building jdk from scratch I assume linux_base is your problem.

NOTE: Actually, I am talking about this issue (linux_base related) only by
reports of other people.  I never was able to reproduce such behavior
on my build machine. :(

Did you changed something ?  Why it did not appear before ?

Sorry.  This is too intrusive change as for me.  I prefer to force
people do it by hands.  At least they'll know how to revert this
change in runtime.
