Java Cache Viewer gives Bus Error
I am having a problem with Java Cache Viewer (JCV). I need to run an application which uses Java web start. On Tiger javaws is actually to JCV. If I try to launch JCV on its own it tries but fails to launch. If I open the JCV package and double click on the UNIX executable inside it launches Terminal and I see the following:

I had the latest Java patch (java 1.5.0_07) and had this problem. I used Pacifist to downgrade to java 1.5.0_06 (since the app I need to run won't run with 1.5.0_07) and get the same error. I tried using Pacifist to extract JCV from the 1.5.0_06 upgrade installer pkg and that also gives this error. Same error with a fresh account so it's not a cache or Preferences problem.
I don't think it's a bad memory issue, I don't see any other symptoms. Most likely there is some file somewhere that is missing or bad. I have run Disk Utility and Disk Warrior but no joy. I might try creating a boot disk from a known good system.
Has anyone seen anything like this or have any idea what is going on?
