When I replaced this line with one that looked like this:

the problem of netbeans suddenly closing appeared to go away.  There is less than an hour's
worth of testing on this so far.

Java can be installed in all systems (Linux, Windows, OSX, BSDs,...) in a "JRE" flavor (the runtime environment) and in a "JDK" flavor (the runtime environment plus the developer kit).

NetBeans, as a developer tool, requires the "JDK" flavor to be installed, on all platforms.

That's the reason why you need to change the "netbeans_jdkhome" to point to the JDK instead of the JRE.

Cheers,
Antonio
