OK; I think it worked (well).  Here's what I did:

* pushd /usr/ports/java/icedtea-web/
* patch -C </tmp/icedtea-web.diff
* patch < /tmp/icedtea-web.diff
* make deinstall
* make clean install clean


Please note that I had both openjdk6-b23 & openjdk-7.0.147_1 installed
at the time.

(I'm trying to get a Java-using Web-based application to work, after
doing the above, then exiting and re-starting Firefox, and I get a
pop-up that says "You have chosen to open launchKVMjnlp.do which is a:
do File..."  Previously, I thought it had merely launched the
application, but perhaps I'm confused.)

In any case, I believe the issue with java/icedtea-web not playing nice
with openjdk-7.0.147_1 is resolved by your recent patch -- thanks!

Peace,
david
