Ok, here is how it works.

The Java ports require a java compiler to bootstrap.  On a fresh install you need to install a Linux JDK,
point your JAVA_HOME at that location and then you can compile/install a native JDK.  After the
installation of the native JDK, you can nuke the Linux JDK, set your JAVA_HOME to the native JDK and 
set NATIVE_BOOTSTRAP and get all new native JDKs to compile using the native JDK to bootstrap.  Once
we have a modern binary release (I think the last was like 1.1.8 or there abouts) we won't need the
Linux JDKs at all.

Hopefully it helps and I've got it right..:)
