Well, just about 2 weeks ago it compiled just nicely, had to copy &  
paste the one very long line and then do maike build. I'm using 5.4- 
RELEASE-p1 (i did recompile the world & kernel). You could cvsup your  
ports to that point.

Anyways, if that doesn't help I also made packages since building  
java is quite time-consuming process. If you want to use them they're  
available at http://www.blosphere.net/~sty/jdk-1.5.0p1_2.tbz and  
http://www.blosphere.net/~sty/javavmwrapper-2.0_4.tbz (dependancy)

$ java -version
java version "1.5.0-p1"

sty_23_may_2005_17_19)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.5.0-p1- 
sty_23_may_2005_17_19, mixed mode)

$ file /usr/local/jdk1.5.0/bin/java

You might break some license agreements if you don't compile it  
yourself.
