Reproduced using OpenJDK so this is an Azureus (package) issue and not VM issue.
Upstream says this is a bug in SWT, and they've fixed it in the SWT they bundle with Azureus. We use the Eclipse SWT, so we don't have the patch. I don't know what the fix is yet.
I'll confirm this.

I've confirmed this problem exists for F7 as well, using either GCJ or Sun Java.
IcedTea does not help either.
CCing the eclipse maintainer.
Can we get the actual SWT patch? How about an eclipse.org bug #?
Updated to azureus-3.0.3.4-1.fc9. Should be available tomorrow in rawhide.
azureus-3.0.3.4-2.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
