'cept for AWT in dlopen() loaded JNI apps. Still waiting for
the new release with improved AWT linkage, here. Btw., somebody
pointed me to
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javaqa/1999-06/02-close.html
for an AWT problem that I might have run into also.

Yesssssss. The architecture I have been fighting with for more
than a year now (main executable not Java aware, JNI encapsulated
inside a DLL loaded by dlopen(..)) is mission critical. I am not
getting paid for this, it's an attempt to prove feasibility of
Linux Java - which failed so far. It has been working on Win32
since March 1998, it still doesn't reliably on Linux. Needless to
say, the Win32 base has moved to Java2.
Unfortunately, it is as much a glibc/libdl issue as it is a JDK issue.
