Which FreeBSD are you running? 4.x or 5.x? Both Java and the browser have to be built with the same compiler. I guess the Opera guys are using some sort oft GCC 3.x for their Unix build, so using the JDK built with 2.95.4 will crash the browser. I would not try to build JDK 1.3.1 on a 4.8-STABLE box with GCC 3.x (on 5.1 it works). > What a mess.

Build Mozilla and build the native JDK, both with the same compiler in the same nicht. Then it will work. Build mozilla 1.4 (WITHOUT_CHATZILLA, WITHOUT_MAILNEWS, WITHOUT_LDAP, WITHOUT_COMPOSER) and it will run nicely even on a 350MHz box.
