Java 6 and Linux GTK errors (swt_awt) [message #461262]

I have encountered several problems when switching my application
to Linux (Ubuntu 6.10) with the swt_awt bridge.
A bug which often occurs is a stack overflow related to the X11
server.

Exception on Toolkit thread: java.lang.StackOverflowError
java.lang.StackOverflowError
at sun.awt.X11.XlibWrapper.CallErrorHandler(Native Method)
at sun.awt.X11.XToolkit.SAVED_ERROR_HANDLER(Unknown Source)
at sun.awt.X11.XToolkit.GlobalErrorHandler(Unknown Source)......

This bug only occurs in certain situations which makes me think this is a bug of the Eclipse platform.
Another bug seems to occur when using Java 6 and the swt_awt bridge. Not only the layout doesn't work properly also my rcp application freezes when using the native look and feel which has been improved with the Java 6 platform.

Any comments about similar experiences or how this bugs can be avoided are appreciated.

Has anybody some information about the progress of the swt_awt bridge using java 6 under linux.
I've seen no progress on this topic since the first message.
For example also the new update to java 1.6.01 didn't fix the problem with the native look and feel. It still hangs.

Any information about this topic is appreciated !
