Menu entries are created fort all desktop environments creating files
defined by common standards. Each installed software is responsible for
creating the correct file. (".desktop" files)
Looking at xfig port the desktop entry provided by upstream has that
patch coded in. The port is not patching it. The error you see would
happen with any desktop environment in FreeBSD. I'll provide a patch to
fix this.
Thanks for reporting it!
BTW to edit desktop menu entries in xfce you can use x11/menulibre.

Don't know much about java, but I can't find information about this
problem in this thread.
