Hi,
you only need to compile and install the right port. For JDK 6 it is =
openjdk6, it will work. Please proceed as described in the handbook. =
Don't use parallel make jobs, it will fail with openjdk.

Building headless is an art of its own, you have to ask the openjdk =
people, it is not supported through the FreeBSD port system at the =
moment, at least not for JDK6. Maybe it is easier to build headless with =
JDK 7. Please inform us if you find a solution for headless, I'm very =
interested.
Greetings.
