The notice in the software update states for Mac OS X
10.5.7 and later. Formally, it's this update:

Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 4 Version 1.0

IBM/Tivoli has several PMRs open on this one (I've 
added our incident to the list), and it's in the
hands of the developers.

Hi,

We had a user with this today on TSM 5.5, and I've recreated the error
on a second machine by upgrading to that version of Java.  So it seems
likely that you're right that it's the Java update.

We're now wondering whether this will affect all Mac clients that have
upgraded to Java 1.5.0_19...

Best wishes,

Jason
