Openjdk kernel crash

Hi all,

I was wondering if this errata notice 
http://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories/FreeBSD-EN-14:02.mmap.asc 
was the fix for the kernel bug that openjdk was exposing?

I ask because I understand that there's currently a 0-day exploit for Java7 
and I'd really like to get openjdk back up to date. I realize though that 
logistically it'll be difficult... will we need an osrelease check in the port 
now?

Thanks for all your time & effort on keeping java support on FreeBSD.

Cheers,
DMK
