Netbeans 6

Netbeans doesn't run properly on FreeBSD, the main missing functionality I and 
others have noticed is:

- You can't run Rich Client Platform (Netbeans Module) apps within the IDE, 
they only run as JNLP (webstart) outside the IDE.
- Profiling doesn't work in FreeBSD

Is anyone interested in fixing these issues so that Netbeans truly works on 
FreeBSD? It's becoming a compelling alternative to Eclipse, but the above 
limitations on FreeBSD are frustrating.
