I applied the 7_Recommended cluster patch which consists of 57 patches
and 11 required patches for Java2:

106300-09  106541-11  106980-10  107153-01  107636-03  109104-01
106327-08  106950-09  107081-20  107544-03  108376-07

I'm not quite sure, but I think it's Patch-ID# 106541-11 since it's
the only one I found with a reference to /usr/lib/libc* among the patches
I installed.

Unfortunately I lost some time tracing the bug and will be out of
office until monday so I can't spend more time on it for now.
Next week I will be able to prove my suspicion if there's further
demand on that.
