I believe the FreeBSD Foundation Java binary problem has to do with a partial library version bump in -CURRENT, where libc has been bumped, but other libraries haven't, and the binary depends on the old libc, which is presumably not compatible with the other newer libraries it's also pulling in. The Foundation is not yet doing certified JDK/JRE builds for 7.x, although we will cut certified builds for 6.2. I don't know what the right library version fix is for the base system -- Java is presumably not the only affected binary -- but it's not my area so that's ok. :-) Robert N M Watson Computer Laboratory University of Cambridge
