At

 ftp://people.redhat.com/drepper/libcwait.c

you find a file which you can compile with

  gcc -shared -o libcwait.so -fpic -O2 libcwait.c

to get a DSO which you then can preload with

  LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/libcwait.so java ARGS...

Another problem involved the installer hanging at “Link pending …”. This was fixed with:

  export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5
