Hi

yes I found the same broken link problem this weekend....

(this MIGHT work for you)

I found some links to java/JRE for freebsd but in a rather unusual way -
i went to www.icq.com then to download the javaicq. It takes you to a
selection page for which OS - select freebsd from the required
components section and it takes you to links (not on freebsd.org) to
sites where you can download the required jdk/jre. 

read the instructions carefully :) make sure you have 2.1 compatibility
installed (look at /etc/make.conf, uncomment the 2.1 compatibility line
then build the world)
