The problem is that the ports infrastructure has been modified to drop support for 4.X altogether -- this _greatly_ simplified our maintainence burden. You're probably going to have to do a cvs checkout of the ports tree as of tag RELEASE_4_EOL (do _not_ go past that, especially not to what's in the tree as of today!) and then start looking through cvsweb to see what exactly has changed in the jdk ports, and bsd.java.mk, in the meantime. I predict that you have a long and difficult task ahead of you. Several years' worth of changes have been made all over the tree by this point. My advice would be to try to install e.g. 6.3 or 7.0 and create a 4.X jail to run your applications in, if it all absolutely has to be on one machine. mcl
