The fact of the matter is that any errors that you get with the
linux-sun-jdk/jre is due to the linuxalator or the emulator/linux
ports. The linux-sun-jdk/jre is used mainly to bootstrap the native
build, after which the interest in getting any other functionality out
of it to work falls expontentially.
