building jdk15

[Chuck Robey]

I finally got Linux emulation working on my amd64, and in rapid 
succession, got the environment set up, and have the compilation of the 
FreeBSD-native jdk15 building.  I have a situation forming, though, and 
I would like to ask if anyone who has built the jdk15 (even on i386) has 
seen this:

First, it spent about the first hour building a large number of C++ 
sources.  Then, it stopped that, kicked off 10 javac processes (perhaps 
threads, I might be misreading the ps listing), and for at elast the 
last 90 minutes, nothing has happened at all, no screen output, so I 
can't tell if things are hung, or working correctly.

I *think* things are still going, because top is reading small 
variations in the cpu percentage for the javac processes, but I sure 
would appreciate it if anyone else who's experiences this might give me 
a few words of encouragement.

Thanks for all the help from folks, in getting this far.  I saw Damian 
Gerow's mail about his jdk15 only hanging, not producing any useful 
work, I would be interested in any resolution of that, also.
