. Many patches are now unnecessary as they are included in the new
patchset.
. The browser plugin and Java Web Start is enabled on i386 (there are
64 bit issues with both the plugin and Mozilla/Firefox which prevent
enabling it on amd64).
. Update the amount of disk space needed.
. Update the status of the port.
. Disable building the shared class data archive. This broke the build
on amd64 and appears to also be problematic on some i386 versions
(4.11 is broken at least). It will reappear in future, probably
initially on a limited set of FreeBSD versions and architectures
(6.0/i386 is reported to work).

family -- first public patchset of native Sun JDK 1.5.0 port.
Most valuable addition of this patchset is native amd64 support.
And special thanks goes to Daniel Seuffert <ds@freeBSD.org> for
making it possible by providing amd64 hardware.
This patchset was tested on following configurations: i386/4.10,
i386/5.3, amd64/5.3. 5.3-RELEASE support is quite strong and
shown no huge visible problems over last week.
But even mentioning above note, keep in mind -- THIS IS ALPHA
PATCHSET and suitable for testers/developers ONLY!
Known issues are including (but for sure not limited to):
. Browser plugin support is missing
. JVMTI, JDWP and JMX are not tested yet
. FreeBSD i386/4.10 support is suffering from hidden memory
allocation failres (ideas and patches are welcome)
NOTE ABOUT BOOTSTRAPING: It's possible to bootstrap jdk 1.5.0 using
jdk 1.4.2 (either native or linux one). There's no need to have
java/linux_jdk15 installed and working.
