Please see Bug 1345633 on Oracle's MetaLink site. I went ahead and killed (as root) the forked swlist process; that enabled the installation to continue with no ill effects that I could see. You might wish to do a CUSTOM install instead of TYPICAL and deselect the Advanced Security Option from the product list.
