Thanks for the reply, Eric.

You're right, the patch was removed
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/java/jdk14/files/Attic/patch-common::Defs.gmk

But the source in my work directory seems to have the patch applied.  I 
hunted around a bit, and it turns out that that patch made its way into 
patchset 4, so it was no longer needed in the files directory of the port.

So, once again, I am stumped :-).

Thanks,
