  These are the values of devname the while loop at
  NetworkInterface.c:1108 sees (compare to the device names above!):

  dev: eth3
  dev: veth4pXXGI
  dev: 80
  dev: 158
  dev: 3efffe49ac43
  dev: fc163efffefa2220
  dev: fc163efffe8fb8ba

  dev: 022590fffe1a48e6
  dev: 000000000001
  dev: 000000000001

  The parsing is too restrictive. Who said the netlink device number is
  only ever 2 hex digits wide? Same goes probably for the other hex
  values, I don't know. Should be safe making no assumption about their
  maximum width.

  Furthermore, the parsing is error prone, it doesn't stop if a line
  couldn't be read completely, i.e. it cannot detect whether a line has
  been read completely.

  The attached patch fixes the apparent problem.

  Btw, I got the same error with openjdk-6.
