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

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.
