There are two solutions. One is to patch the glibc source and rebuild. 
The other is to download the JDK 1.4.1 from Sun and use that instead 
with JBuilder. In ./JBuilder6/bin, you'll find the file jdk.config. Edit 
it and change the values for 'javapath' and 'addpath'. For example, I 
installed 1.4.1 in /opt/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01,

#
# Set the path for the JDK
#javapath /home/bheadley/JBuilder6/jdk1.3.1/bin/java
javapath /opt/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01/bin/java
# Add the tools.jar
#addpath /home/bheadley/JBuilder6/jdk1.3.1/lib/tools.jar
addpath /opt/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01/lib/tools.jar

You will find that Wine is another package which is sensitive to the 
glibc change. The resolution there is more difficult :-)
