Title:
  /usr/lib/jvm VS /lib/jvm under overlayfs.

Status in openjdk-7 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Attached is an strace that shows /lib/jvm as the location used to find
  libjli.so.

  java: error while loading shared libraries: libjli.so: cannot open
  shared object file: No such file or directory

  # This fixed the issue.
  arcadia:~# ln -s /usr/lib/jvm /lib

  arcadia:~# dpkg -S /lib/jvm /usr/lib/jvm
  dpkg-query: no path found matching pattern /lib/jvm.
  openjdk-7-jre-lib, openjdk-7-jre, icedtea-7-jre-cacao, icedtea-7-jre-jamvm, openjdk-7-jre-headless, icedtea-netx: /usr/lib/jvm

  /lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/jre/bin/../lib/i386/jli/libjli.so
  /lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/jre/bin/../jre/lib/i386/jli/libjli.so

  EDIT:
  After reading the first few lines of the strace, I realised the issue.  /proc/self/exe CAN NOT be used to lookup what file is being run, because not every file-system supports it properly.  For that you must at least fall back to using inode and device numbers.
