I was bitten by this snake a few hours ago. Solved it by creating a
/etc/libmap.conf with

     # echo libz.so.4 libz.so.5 > /etc/libmap.conf

That allowed it to run well enough to bootstrap the building of jdk 1.5:

     # cd /usr/ports/java/jdk15
     # make install

Then I deleted Diablo with

     # pkg_delete diablo\*

I built jdk 1.5 because I need it, but I guess you can build jdk 1.6.

So I guess.

My preferred quotation of Robert Louis Stevenson is "You cannot
make an omelette without breaking eggs". Not because I like the
omelettes, but because I like the sound of eggs being broken.
