The JDK1.1.5 is known to run on FreeBSD-2.2.2 and later.  And, yes, you
might want to consider upgrading.

Unfortunately, the following fix is unsupported:

For earlier FreeBSD releases the following might work (it's been some
time since I've tried this):

	ln -s /usr/lib/libc.so.2.2 \
		/usr/local/jdk1.1.5/lib/i386/green_threads/libc.so.3.0

(This assumes that your version of libc in /usr/lib is libc.so.2.2, and
that you've installed the JDK in /usr/local.  Salt to taste.)
