Sun releases Solaris x86, and you can get the same official, native 1.4.x SDK's for that platform without reinvesting in new hardware. Not that I'm advocating switching platforms, mind you. :) Given your current situation, though -- you're pigeonholed into needing 1.4.x for production services. So with that, possible interim solutions: (a) Living with the current "stress failure" situation with the 1.4 SDK while waiting and testing new port versions, and future native-build ports of the 1.4.x SDKs on FreeBSD. (b) Switch to Solaris or Linux temporarily while the wrinkles with 1.4 get sorted out on FreeBSD. Then come back to us when our Release Notes indicate that the SDK should be stable. If you think your services will run acceptably under the current scenario for a while, stick with (a). Platform changes are painful, and nobody here wants to lose a good FreeBSD user... however temporary that might be. We appreciate you working with us.
