Yes.

I experience the crash on two different machines of mine (actually my
main machines at home and work), so this is a real blocker for me. Maybe
this can only be reproduced when a specific set of packages is installed
or with a specific configuration. I intend to spend more time soon to
isolate the factor causing the crash.

Note that for the Wheezy release this issue is not a blocker, because
the version of octave-java in Wheezy works fine and my understanding is
that OpenJDK 6 will be shipped with Wheezy.
