Oops, The handbook seems to be staled at that point. Linux_devtools was removed. It was used with unsupported linux_base port (which may be removed any time now). It is recommended to use linux_dist ports for development. You may consider searching mail archieves on Oracle installing. There were some threads about it recently (though I don't recall exact mailing list, but it may be emulation@, current@, stable@). May be somebody at freebsd-emulation@ list may help you.
