Help: Install JDK 1.5 on FreeBSD 5.4 AMD64

[Tanya N kessler]

I've tried just about everything.  The linux-sun-jdk14 works.  I can javac -version.  Linprocfs mounts.  I have all the right options in the kernel.  I added WITH_LIB32=YES to make.conf.  What I'm wondering is, do I have to have current ports (bleeding edge) or is stable ports o.k.?  For those who got native jdk15 to work on amd64, are you using stable or current ports?  I just saw a post about disabling security in the rc.conf file.  I'm going to look into that also...  If someone has time maybe could they create a quick and dirty how to on installing native jdk15 on a fresh install of freebsd 5.4 for amd64.  I know if ever get this working I'm definitely going to host a how to on this.

forgot this: you need to replace /usr/lib32/libpthread by 
/usr/lib32/libc_r.
