Progress!  At last!

I just updated swt-devel to the latest stable release (3.7.1), and
finally, Vuze is now working as it should.  Yay!  For the very first
time since I started trying to use it, the "Getting Started", "Vuze HD
Network" and Search windows are coming up as they should.

I'm going to submit a send-pr to upgrade the swt-devel port in a few
minutes.  It clearly would be beneficial to others.

I just love happy endings.  :-)
