I've since found that there is an "echo this port needs compat3x libraries" in the Makefile, but in my case, jdk installed automatically as part of installing another port. By the time the installation failed, this message was long gone. Unfortunately compat3x isn't a port so you can't directly use RUN_DEPENDS, but it would be nice if the install step aborted with an error if the relevant libraries aren't present so that it's obvious that manual intervention is required.
