CCS/CCSTUDIO: CCS_V7 crashes on updated Ubuntu 16.04

Part Number: CCSTUDIO
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2640R2F

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I was running CCS 7.1 for a while on Ubuntu 16.04. Then I updated Ubuntu yesterday and CCS would not start.

Have since installed CCS 7.2 for linux - same problem (from CCS7.2.0.00013_linux-x64.tar)

When trying to start  ~/ti/ccsv7/eclipse/ccstudio, it flashes the splash screen and that's it. Message on terminal is "Segmentation fault (core dumped)".

GDB on the core shows:

[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".
Core was generated by `ccstudio'.
Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
#0  0x00007f5e60987ec7 in _expand_stack_to(unsigned char*) ()
   from /home/arross/ti/ccsv7/eclipse/jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so
[Current thread is 1 (Thread 0x7f5e6ecbe700 (LWP 6782))]

lsb_release info:

~/ti/ccsv7/eclipse> lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:    Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS
Release:    16.04
Codename:    xenial

Interestingly, if I start ~/ti/ccsv7/eclipse/eclipse instead of "ccstudio", the GUI does start up and I can load the workspace (I'm developing for the CC2640R2F).

However, "rebuild" of the APP project fails when trying to run the "xs" xdctool, also with a segfault ("rebuild" of the stack project works).
