Thanks to Robert Dodson who pointed out a minor bug in the most recent
JDK release, I've re-rolled one of the libraries to fix a bug in UDP
Datagram handling.

If you want to send UDP packets to the Broadcast address (not Multicast,
but Broadcast packets), the FreeBSD JDK refused with a permissions
error.  This has now been corrected, but instead of rolling an entire
release over again, I've decided to provide a simple patch, since the
fix involved a single shared library.

If you are experiencing the problem or you just want to be running the
'bets' bits, feel free to download the patch from the WWW page.

As always, the latest news and bits are available via the official
FreeBSD JDK www page at:
