I see from them that you are using the openjdk with Ubuntu, so I tried openjdk on my Fedora machine and didn't get a problem but then it is 32bit and has a higher build number so probably has different (perhaps fewer ;) bugs.

If you can I'd try the Sun jdk instead to see if that is any different.

I've removed openJDK and installed Sun Java RE (afaik 1.6.0-16) and the problems got even worse: instead of only race situations the VM *also* crashes randomly. This is tested with r1240 building only one map in parallel.
