some questions about Java ports

Alright, so it has to be more complex, than I thought, but evidently it has to 
take the ARCH into account as each JDK has platforms, where it does not 
build.

Why not continue mixing it? The yes/no is, literally, a one-bit value, but 
many bytes are used to store it.

I'll look forward to that. Thanks...

P.S. Can you, please, look into the JAVA_HOME not being appended to MAKE_ENV 
properly? Thanks!
