Trussing it shows this:

770/19:
stat64("/usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/ext/amd64/com/sun/wbem/utility/directorytable/SearchTemplate.class",
0xD5ABB8F0) Err#2 ENOENT

... which looks like some sort of Java thingy going south.  I'm not
completely positive that's the problem, but the error you're seeing is
easily reproducible, so file a bug.

You'll likely want to revert those changes.  The hosts file shouldn't be
executable.
