Using the OpenJDK build on Landon's pages enables the patched build to
complete, at least as far as the self-test error mentioned here:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/bsd-port-dev/2008-September/000044.html

As Karen suggests on that page, I've copied the .dylib's over a copy of the
existing JDK build, so I think I have a working build now.

I'm still struggling to get the invokedynamic patches applied, but that's
another story.

Ben
