Hi,

Tried out the jdk115b3.tar.gz with swing-0.7's examples/SwingSet,
(on 2.2.5-RELEASE, P120, 32M) and was pleasantly suprised that the
whole thing didn't crash after loadup (previous versions used to
fail very ungracefully). Response was sluggish, but marginally
acceptable. The only major problem I could find was if I tried the
"Color Chooser" or "About" box, the port chewed up heaps of processor
time, trashed the disk (swapping?), and then nothing...

Other minor gripes:
	.java_wrapper should be changed to use /bin/sh instead of /bin/ksh
	(which doesn't exist on stock FreeBSD system); changes are minor,
	and would enable an `out-of-box experience'.
