My QtJava programs crashes all the time with the library that comes from the 
kdebindings.rpm (upto KDE 3.1, SuSE 8.1 rpm's) and jvm's >= 1.3. I'm pretty 
sure that it is some threading issue. Two workarounds let me run them anyway:

1) Use the "-green" switch with a 1.3 jvm
2) Build from the sources and link libqtjava.so against libqt.so and NOT 
libqt-mt.so

(I prefer the second approach)

Here are two versions of the messages spit out by the jvm (1.4) while 
running/aborting the same program two times:

a)
An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.
Unexpected Signal : 11 occurred at PC=0x400AE7CE
Function=(null)+0x400AE7CE
Library=/lib/libc.so.6

b)
An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.
Unexpected Signal : 11 occurred at PC=0x4002F0CD
Function=__pthread_mutex_lock+0x1D
Library=/lib/libpthread.so.0
