Why is this a bug? The bug comments mention that the latest CentOS 6
has 1.10.4 which is supported by the Icedtea people. I quote from the
comments:
---8<------------------------------------
The newest version of IcedTea in CentOS6 (6.2) is 1.10.4:
http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/6.2/os/i386/Packages/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0-1.41.1.10.4.el6.i686.rpm

Thus ypgrade your CentOS to the latest point release as a minimum as
suggested in the issue you raised. Again from the issue raised, the
following link is pretty enlightening:
