The Linux Sun-JDK is required to bootstrap the native JDK build. Once
the native build completes and installs successfully, the Linux JDK
can be removed. The most common problem in getting the Linux JDK to
run properly is not mounting the linux procfs, as detailed in
ports/java/linux-sun-jdk14/pkg-message.
