I traced this to two unrecognised options being passed to the Java 
process by /usr/share/ovirt-engine/scripts/engine-service.py: 
-XX:+UseCompressedOops and -XX:+TieredCompilation

By removing these from the command line, I make progress. I now have an 
oVirt web application displaying in my browser!

I also noticed this typo in the same file:

     engineArgs.extend([
         # Virtual machine options:
         "-server",
         "-XX:+UseCompressedOops",
         "-XX:+TieredCompilation",
         "-Xms%s" % engineHeapMin,
         "-Xms%s" % engineHeapMax,
// This should be "-Xmx%s" to set the max heap size
         "-XX:PermSize=%s" % enginePermMin,
         "-XX:MaxPermSize=%s" % enginePermMax,
         "-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true",
         "-Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000",
         "-Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000",
         "-Djava.awt.headless=true",
     ])

Cheers,
Dave.
