See the following page for some discussion on the issue:
/usr/ports/java/jdk14/work/j2se/src/share/back/util.c
Basically you have to use the correct plugin, depending on the way your 
mozilla is compiled. I don't use the linux version myself, so I can't be 
more specific.

-classic is not an option any more in 1.4.x, you have to use hotspot 
(client or server).
