You have to install the binary "linux-jdk13" port, before building the 
native "jdk13". Apparently a working java environment is needed to build 
this port. (You can uninstall linux-jdk13 afterwards.)

A lot of people ask this question and I didn't understand it either the 
first time; CC-d to the maintainers of the jdk13 port (java@freebsd.org) 
so they can consider updating pkg-descr and the error message to include 
a hint to installing linux-jdk1.3.1 before building jdk13. :)

thanks!
walter
