Just a quick hint for those people who are only using the Blackdown JDK to bootstrap FreeBSD/JDK builds (and not for normal usage). If you've already compiled and installed the FreeBSD JDK port and compiled and installed a JIT, be sure to unset JAVA_COMPILER before making a new version. I just got bitten by that one, because the Blackdown JDK couldnt find OpenJIT. Took me a little while to discover it, when the build reported my Linux JDK was not a valid JDK to build with. The problem comes around because the sanity check looks at the first line outputted by '/usr/local/linux-jdk1.2.2/bin/java -version' in order to check the version number. The correct output would usually be: java version "1.2.2" Classic VM (build Linux_JDK_1.2.2_RC4, green threads, nojit)# or similar. In my case, it was: Warning: JIT compiler "OpenJIT" not found. Will use interpreter. java version "1.2.2" Classic VM (build Linux_JDK_1.2.2_RC4, green threads, nojit) and the sanity check obviously found no version number in the first line. Just issuing an 'unset JAVA_COMPILER' before the build will do the trick.
