I thought maybe I had to run current ports for jdk to work.  I did a fresh install last night and cvsup'd with:
 
*default host=cvsup7.freebsd.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5
*default delete use-rel-suffix compress
ports-all tag=.
src-all
 
I reliezed last night that I have been installing linux_base instead of linux_base-8.  I also didn't have: linux_enable="YES" in rc.conf.  I tried to build native jdk15 last night, it seemed to stop and hang where it said:
 
Old database:
 computing closures

New database:
 reading database: includeDB
 computing closures

I think I'm getting closer now, I added: WITH_LIB32=YES to /etc/make.conf and started it before I left for work.  I'll see what happens when I get home.  Does anyone know if I'm close to getting it installed now?

Yeah, I tried to execute the command by hand in a script.  I just get 
some other different errors.  The thing is, I shouldn't have the first 
error.  If other people can install it, why can't I?  In theory this is 
what I'm trying to do on a fresh install.  Of course I'm having some 
problems with installing the new world, but once I get passed that 
maybe 
it will work?  If someone sees something that I'm missing, please point 
it out.

Install FreeBSD 5.4 on AMD64. 
1.Create /root/current-supfile 
*default host=cvsup7.freebsd.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=.
*default delete use-rel-suffix
ports-all tag=.
src-all
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Dope!!!!!!!!!!
Do you realize that you are not longer on FreeBSD 5.4 ????
Can you do a "uname -a" right now?
For 5.4 you would need smth like:
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5
(for stable development branch), or
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5_4
(for the "errata" branch, or merely just
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5_4_0_RELEASE
(for the release itself).

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

2. Update ports and source files. 

# cvsup /root/current-supfile

3. Create package database. 
# pkgdb -F

4. Upgrade installed ports. 
# portupgrade -arR

5. Rebuild world and kernel, boot in single user mode. GENERIC kernel 
will have all correct options for Linux binary support. 

# boot –s
# fsck –p
# mount –u /
# mount –a –t ufs
# swapon –a
# adjkerntz –i
# cd /usr/src
# make buildworld
# make buildkernel
# make installkernel
6. Reboot into single user mode (boot –s)
# fsck –p
# mount –u /
# mount –a –t ufs
# swapon –a
# cd /etc
# mergemaster –p
# make installworld
# mergemaster
# reboot

7. Add to /etc/fstab: 

linprocfs /usr/compat/linux/proc linprocfs rw 0 0

8. Add to /etc/make.conf: 

WITH_LIB32=YES

9. Acquire all related Java source, binaries, and patch files.  Make 
sure they are all executable by user and group, then copy to 
/usr/ports/distfiles. 
10. Navigate to /usr/ports/java/linux-sun-jdk14. 

# make
# make install
# make clean
# make distclean
11. Test java: 

# java -version
12. Navigate to /usr/ports/java/jdk15. 

# make
# make install

Have you tried jdk15 on FreeBSD 6.x??

Also if i were you, i'd ask some "popular" person from java@freebsd
to login to your machine and have a close look.

Also, what about the actual shell command that caused the execve() 
error??
