Here, x86_64, jbidwatcher starts fine. Also freemind.

Do you use the envvar AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit ?  I don't.

$ nm /nix/store/bldh16hdv4008dhgylj30986pzz8ajpn-jre-1.6.0_32b03/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so | grep alloc_template 
.....
                 U _ZNSt24__default_alloc_templateILb1ELi0EE10deallocateEPvm
                 U _ZNSt24__default_alloc_templateILb1ELi0EE8allocateEm

I tried dontStrip... no change.
