I tried previous update releases and this is happening in 6u04 and later. But not in latest jdk7. So far seen in Windows only.
Seems like functionality is still okay, however, some tests are affected (most likely by amount of output) and failing.

EVALUATION This is a bug in the fix for 6544309 which was added to 6u4. This has been fixed as 6852111 in JDK 7. Its changeset is http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7/jdk/rev/50321e4d46eb . It can be backported to JDK 6 as is if needed.
