I tried to install /usr/ports/java/jdk14 after cvsuping my
ports, note the nice warning message from the port which
claims that itself may be unstable, and that I should
install itself.  WTF?!

Warning: This JDK may be unstable. You are advised to use
the native
FreeBSD JDK, in ports/java/jdk14.

This Java VM will attempt to obtain some system information
by
accessing files in linux's procfs.  You must install the
Linux
emulation procfs filesystem for this to work correctly.  The
JVM
will exhibit various problems otherwise.  This can be
accomplished
by adding the following line to your /etc/fstab file:

 linprocfs   /compat/linux/proc   linprocfs   rw   0  0

and then, as root, executing the commands:

kldload linprocfs
mount /compat/linux/proc


...


/usr/ports/emulators/linux_base-8/distinfo.amd64  -> No such
file or directory anywhere on the net.

I wonder why the port is asking for something which
apparently does not exist.
