I just discovered this, and so had to pass it on.

Simply set the property

   -Didea.no.jdk.check=true

when invoking the JVM at startup, and IDEA does not
perform its JVM check.  (Thanks to JAD and a previous
post to this list identifying com.intellij.idea.Main
as the culprit class, and I guess to the IntelliJ guys
for adding this in more recent versions).

As to usage ... I'll let you know if I experience any
problems which seem BSD'ish.  I've duplicated this information
on the IDEA community's Wiki, so hopefully it won't show
up quite so frequently on this list.

By the way ... many, many thanks for the FreeBSD Java
porting team ... your efforts are extremely important,
and well-appreciated.

regards,
David Bullock
