Ken,

I don't think it would be clear to the user if we just built based on 
the installed JDK's... in fact if they have multiple versions installed, 
it would become a conundrum.  I'd suggest we add an OPTIONS= entry in 
the Makefile to allow the selection of 1.5, which would then install the 
relevant version (if needed) and set the port dependency accordingly.  
I'm not really sure how the JAVA_HOME thing should be handled though, as 
in my mind, there's nothing to stop a user flicking back and forth... 
although I'm not really keen on setting it statically.  I'm sure someone 
out there who's more in touch with the FreeBSD Java world would have a 
suggestion.

I've installed the Data Tools plugin and can replicate the crash you 
describe there... I'd like to check it again other platforms also, can't 
right now.

Cheers,

Mike.
