There is no source bundle downloadable from the FreeBSD Foundation. What 
you can get is two different packaging formats. One suitable for pkg_add 
and the other suitable for manual unpackaging or installation via the 
diablo- ports. If you check the diablo-jdk15 Makefile you will see a 
NO_BUILD=yes definition. It just extracts the tar file using cpio.

Cheers,
