Ouch, isn't this a chicken-and-egg problem here? How did you solve this
prolbem? I really hate that Java is not selfcontained...>>>

Hi Michael,

no, not a problem , that's just the bootstrap jdk which Greg Lewis provided
to us as : 
http://distcache.FreeBSD.org/local-distfiles/glewis/openjdk11-11.0.2.9.1-amd64.tar.xz 

you can install it to /usr/local/openjdk11 or wherever you want and change
the flag to that point or like I did :

I just installed it, set JAVA_HOME and the PATH to /bin in sh-shell-  so
even not necessary to set this flag, the build will automatically detect
bootstrap -java -version=11. GLewis will provide that as the bootstrap jdk
in his finished port.
As I wrote I made a successful build with the tools provided by GLewis+
KMiller.
You can begin now with that "tools" ,everything complete,  GLewis`s
compiler-flags are all good, don`t worry bout that ;-)

Does this basically mean that won't be a i386 release of OpenJDK 11 for 
FreeBSD? What is the actual obstacle here?

No, that basically means that you have to bootstrap the Tux-jdk via NFS  if
you’re on i386, as described by K. Miller .

Best Regards
