My JRE was indeed old / broken.  The automated upgrade from Ubuntu
jaunty to Ubuntu karmic apparently didn't upgrade sun-java6-bin, and
apt-get install --reinstall didn't do the trick, had to apt-get remove:

$ aptitude show $(dpkg -S $(readlink -e $(which java)) | cut -d: -f1)

$ java -jar SoftSqueeze.jar
[no hang this time]

(I ran aptitude show rather than dpkg -s the first time, but I believe
6-16-0ubuntu1.9.04 was in fact the version installed)
