If you install openjdk-6 (6b08-0ubuntu1) in hardy (and possibly icedtea-
gcjwebplugin) and use it instead of the sun-java6 is the problem fixed?
Recent updates in the openjdk package include:

  * Install a wrapper script for javaws, which calls `javaws -viewer' if no
    arguments are given (or else starting javaws from the desktop menu
    would not do anything).
  * debian/JB-web-start.applications.in: Remove the -viewer option from command.

It sounds like those address this bug, but in the open-source openjdk-6
package instead of the proprietary sun-java6 package.  Getting Sun to
update sun-java6 can be problematic, but it should be helpful if we can
confirm that the problem was fixed in openjdk.
