apparently you forgot to run make as root.

Apart from that, the situation you are describing is not any helpful at 
all.

I dont think you did any proper preparation before trying to do any 
serious freebsd work.

If you spent *hours* on "this" then you should at least send a PR
or inform the FreeBSD -java list somehow.

I dont swear by it, but if you really spent *hours* on it,
then sooner or later you will face similar "unbeatable" problems
with ubuntu as well.
