RAD Model2's SPF smoketest creates a Struts formbean, then create a
JSP that uses it. In creating the Struts JSP, the user selects a
formbean, then attempts to select fields from it to display. This
works in win32, but on SLES9 (with "fixed" /etc/hosts, see below):

This causes the workbench to hang (with rotating-clockhands mouse
icon) for awhile, but eventually it returns. The JSP wizard can then
be reinvoked, and the appropriate page comes up with the appropriate
fields listed.

Note that this box does NOT have the IPv6/localhost problem: its
/etc/hosts is (entry for self removed)

#
# hosts         This file describes a number of hostname-to-address
#               mappings for the TCP/IP subsystem.  It is mostly
#               used at boot time, when no name servers are running.
#               On small systems, this file can be used instead of a
#               "named" name server.
# Syntax:
#
# IP-Address  Full-Qualified-Hostname  Short-Hostname

127.0.0.1       localhost

# special IPv6 addresses
# GMJ 20040928 - Removed "localhost" from the list.  It causes problems
#                in org.eclipse.jem bean introspection (which launches a
#                separate JVM with which it communicates via a localhost
#                socket).
