I have a few suggestions about the port:
1) install the source code under ${PREFIX}/jdk1.1.7/src instead of
leaving it packed
2) symlink ${PREFIX}/jdk1.1.7 to ${PREFIX}/java
3) after installing the port, display (or point to a README
containing) instructions for setting PATH and CLASSPATH
correctly: ${PREFIX}/java/bin should be added to the PATH,
and the CLASSPATH should be set to ${PREFIX}/lib/classes.zip:.
