Well, if the bootclasspath (or sysclasspath or so) doesn't work, then I will
patch the ant shell script. Perhaps I should patch the script anyway.

Please define 'a bit undeterministic' ? Isn't that a contradictio
interminus? :-) IMHO the current behaviour makes life easy for Java users
on FreeBSD and makes the JAR repository at ${PREFIX}/share/java/classes
really useful.

AFAIK there is no rule that says that Java _applications_ should be
installed below ${PREFIX}/share/java. Only libraries are installed there.
If you have any evidence against that let me know and I will change the
port.
