This is on the GTK+ build of Eclipse, right?

See bug 20006 and bug 259947.

Technically, it's not a full hang because if you can swap out to a tty then you should be able to kill the debugged Java process. X should then be released.

Your correct, GTK+ Ubuntu 10.4 LTS

Its doesn't seem to be a duplicate as my code does not reference a static section. I'll try to create a minimum example

I can't reproduce this using Snippet122.
