i could imagine that this is the inverse of ths bug:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50584

so perhaps (since you build with MSVC2010) the installation set does not
include the MSVC2008 runtime, and loading the jvm.dll from JRE 6 fails
because that requires the MSVC2008 runtime and the JRE does not install
it properly.  so you could test if it suddenly starts working after
installing MSVC2008 runtime redistributable from microsoft.com.
