Not from the port.  It needs to be built on a machine with X, but once
you've done that you can create a package and move it to other machines
you have without X.  The SCSL doesn't stop you doing this internally,
you just can't distribute the binary to others.

Think compiler, think bootstrapping.  Trust me, you need the linux-jdk13
port installed.  If you don't the port build will die and complain about
not bootstrapping with a valid JDK.
