You don't have to do that, it's an option, just do a make config and
deselect it. 

If you are trying to to get the browser plugin to work, it probably
wont. The diablo java ports are precompiled binaries, currently built
against FreeBSD 6, and this is one of the few cases where compat6x
doesn't help. You need to build java from source e.g. with java/jdk15.
