I've finally figured out why fastdebug jdk occasionally gives InternalError in the zip code.

In the distant past, I also saw this with product builds. Triggering conditions involved a JNI DSO calling dlopen(RTLD_GLOBAL) on another DSO which eventually triggered loading the system zlib. This might still be relevant on stock OpenJDK 7.

IcedTea avoids this by linking against system zlib.
