The best way is to define NATIVE_BOOTSTRAP=YES in your environment and
then use "portupgrade -v jdk13" to upgrade it.

"portupgrade" is a port in /usr/ports/sysutils which you can install the
normal way first.

This might also work;

1. define NATIVE_BOOTSTRAP
2. cd /usr/ports/java/jdk13
3. make build
3. pkg_delete jdk-1.3.1xxxx (whatever version you have)
4. make install

I haven't tried this though.  Once you start using portupgrade, the rest
is painful. <grin>
