This topic has been documented a few times recently on this list so you
can probably find it. Anyway, as I am in the middle of the same and in front
of the machine, here are the tips first hand (remember that it will apply to
both JDK and Diablo):

- Download the latest tzupdater to /usr/ports/distfiles
- The steps below apply to /usr/ports/java/diablo-jdk15 and
/usr/ports/java/jdk15
  * Makefile: fix the values of TZUPDATE_VERSION (should read 1.3.5)
    and TZUPDATE_TZVERSION (should read 2008b)
  * Distinfo: fix the entries relative to tzupdater:
MD5 (tzupdater-1_3_5-2008b.zip) = 139213d195a608d086e1d7eb5b126d81
SHA256 (tzupdater-1_3_5-2008b.zip) =
841afee8af42299a1dbbcf6b07917b83aef374eb982d7e898acc95700308c62b
SIZE (tzupdater-1_3_5-2008b.zip) = 263679

Note 1: Make sure you fix the file name (not just the values) in Distinfo
or the patch will be ignored (better still: append the above lines at the end
of the file...)

Note 2: if you have to update the package again, use the commands
"ls -l", md5(1) and sha256(1) for the correct values.

To the best of my knowledge, Sun does not maintain a repository of older
packages because it hardly makes sense. I would recommend to update
the app instead of looking for a previous version. It contains offical
information about DST in the various timezones and some countries
sometimes decide at the last minute to change the switching dates (it
happened in Chile this year).

Hope it helps
Olivier
