Landon is a member of the BSD Java porting team and I expect he'll
integrate his changes into the porting team repo when he has time.  I'll
then do a patchset release featuring them.  My understanding is that
the port isn't complete, but gets to the "Hello, World" stage.

This is pretty exciting since it will put the FreeBSD port into a position
where it supports more architectures than the official Linux port :).
