How about cd /usr/ports/lang/jdk && make install

The jdk port doesn't build, it just fetches a tarball anyway. This
implies a fresh ports tree, though.

Otherwise, I think it any fresh package you find should work for both
2.2.8 and 3.0, but don't take my word for it. Check
www.freebsd.org/java/ , but note that there's a glitch in the
appletviewer of 19981221, that is fixed in the ports collection
(patch-aa). Check it out, or fetch the november tarball.
