I noticed the hang in load_gtk when trying to run netbeans with
openjdk-7. For me disabling accessible like in https://bugs.debian.org
/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=798131. The hand seems to be X11 threading
related based on other similar hangs reported in web.

Native backtrace looks a lot like situation where some other thread managed to 
steal the X11 reply deadlocking load_gtk call waiting for X11 reply.


After I once managed to start the netbeans with accessibility disabled the bug 
doesn't seem to reproduce any more with accessibility enabled.

I decided to try a bit more with accessibility enabled leading to more
hangs. But later on I managed to reproduce UI hang while native
backtraces show multiple threads calling g_main_context_iteration,
g_main_loop_run and Java_sun_awt_X11_XToolkit_waitForEvents. But glib
created threads in g_main_* calls seems not be the problem. Those
threads exists also when accessibility is disabled. That makes me think
that if race condition happens it isn't any more visible in native
backtraces when UI is hung.

I tested if XInitThreads gets called starting netbeans inside gdb with a break 
point:
handle SIGSEGV nostop noprint pass
b XInitThreads
r <Fill all neatbeans parameters from ps -f output>

I saw comments that java has rule that UI code is only allowed to run in
single thread. But I already have seen cases where UI code end ups
running from different threads. I have no idea why that happens in so
many applications suddenly.

I decided to test if simple calling XInitThreads would fix the issue with 
following gdb break point setup:
(gdb) b XOpenDisplay
Function "XOpenDisplay" not defined.
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) y
Breakpoint 4 (XOpenDisplay) pending.
(gdb) commands 4
Type commands for breakpoint(s) 4, one per line.
End with a line saying just "end".
>p XInitThreads()
>dis 4
>c
>end

The XOpenDisplay is called in main thread before any other thread
starts. But even with that modification Netbeans UI still managed to
hang. It is hard to try to guess where to look for issue any more than
that with multiple X connections involved and possibility that some
parts of code are using xcb. Maybe checking the accessibility wrapper
code would help.
