Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
Changing setting in TCK configuration window 2 times causes gnome to spawn lots of new items in taskbar. Pressing Alt+Tab causes immediate crash of all windows and sometimes full X restart.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.85-2.6.1.3.el6_7

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the TCK UI window.
2. Open the configuration window, change the concurrency value, press done.
3. Open again the configuration window, change the concurrency value again, press done.

Actual results:
Multiple windows are spawned in taskbar, pressing Alt+Tab causes crash, waiting causes crash little later.

Expected results:
Everything should work as with icedtea 2.5.5.

Additional info:

Upstream oracle repo does not have the issue.
Reported to icedtea upstream: http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2568

Patch attached in upstream, duplicating here.

Created attachment 1057682 [details]
Duplicate of the fix attached to icedtea bugzilla.

This only occurs on i586 RHEL 6, so there's scope for getting that version fixed earlier than the next IcedTea update.

Verified, issue no longer reproducible with version 1.7.0.95-2.6.4.0.el6_7
