FYI:


The Sun JDK 1.5.0 beta 1 has been released, so I've created a port for the 
Linux distro, in java/linux-sun-jdk15/.

See:
http://javalobby.org/thread.jspa?forumID=61&threadID=10482

But hold your horses, it does not work yet. We may need assistance from 
hackers@ to get this thing to work:

# /usr/local/linux-sun-jdk1.5.0/bin/java -version
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM warning: Can't detect initial thread stack 
location - find_vma failed
Bad system call (core dumped)

But we have a starting point :)

PS: It's just committed, so it may take some time to get to the CVSup
    mirrors.
