Description esmithbss 2009-10-13 06:44:58 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 200910100201 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.* ]

While debugging a rake task I placed a breakpoint in my code.  After
the debugger ran for about 10 minutes it hit the breakpoint.  Once it
hit the breakpoint I hovered my mouse over an object to see the value
it stored.  Upon doing so, the debugger  session spontaneously
aborted.

This also happens when switching to the Variables window.

The debugger is not terminating, but the link between the IDE and the debugger is.  This is a regression that makes the
IDE unusable for debugging if you need to check out any variable.

This works for me; can you please provide a minimal sample where this is reproducible for you? Also, is there anything 
interesting in the log? Thanks.
